Time's Flight

Another year turns over, people look to see just what the coming year will mean for you and me. Tomorrow's worries aren't here, and yesterday's are passed. Daylight's your new blessing, but it's really burning fast. The seasons change so quickly, now that we're growing old. "Seize the day my son", seems I was always told. You cannot live life over, and you cannot take it back, so make a first impression, be a leader of the pack. We hurry every day, never noticing the minutes flying by so quickly, time has no sense of limits. Just talking all the while, we have such tales to tell. If only every now and then we grab a rose to smell. Take time for those you love, and those who love you, too. For tomorrow some of them might not be here for you. Teach your children honesty and show them some good deeds. Because love will never flourish if we never plant the seeds.
