Today

Today of all days, this is the most important one.  Don't
look back nor forward rather be happy and contented within
this moment.  Sail the self made boat on the lake - let it move
about swiftly and then perhaps run ashore on its own for the 
next master to sail her.  Lay down under the trees, taste your
wine and fruit divine. Watch the children play until the end of
day.  Time has no mercy and within a blink all is gone.  SEIZE
THE DAY (Carpe Diem) Knowing all the while that life is wonderful
precious, and live it to the fullest measure...

Very creative and thought provoking work. I'm wondering is the self made boat is an individuals life journey. Perhaps you can shed some further light on your poem for me. A very enjoyable read. Well done.
