Your Days Are Numbered

Slowly crawling along searching for life's sustenance no sense of urgency no sense of future Only living for today leaving tomorrow's where they lie basking in the heat of the sun flapping your little effervescent wings taking you where ever you want to go Beware little friend when the cold winds blow and the sun slips farther away movements will become more difficult life will come to a crawl no longer able to fly we'll be frozen in time
