The Same Leaky Old BoatToday is the first day of the rest of your life
Make the most of it
Everyone has a specific number of days here on earth

As if you are going to live...

Job Hunting SeedsToday is the first day of the rest of my life
trying to find a job, I have set out in flight
all the applications, and questions they ask
for someone that is older, this can be a task
from one town to another, I went today
"thank you for...

Pushing Up DaisiesToday is the first day of the rest of your life
Bloody brilliant I say, life is a slice
Beats the alternative
That's an affirmative
Pushing up daisies really sucks that's my advice

live it
kill it
end it
save it
enrich it
change it
paint it
no
today is the last day of the beginning of your life
every day is a clock
tick tick tick-ing away
and no one knows if the clock will reset or just...

Good or bad, happiness and strife, your choice

It's your prerogative
Avoid the stresses that cut like a knife...

Sure Been a SliceToday is the first day of the rest of your life
Maybe long, maybe short, filled with happy or strife
Whatever the case
Good or bad stuff to face
You'll survive and realize it's sure been a slice...

Un-NiceToday is the first day of the rest of your life
The best day ever, no matter how it's sliced
You're breathing in air
With happiness to share
Keeping it to yourself is really un-nice...

Torturing MiceToday is the first day of the rest of your life
So start out beaming, it's a very small price
Jumping through hoops
Smelling parrot poop
And the finer things in life like torturing mice...

What I Miss Most Are the Words Left UnsaidToday, is the first day of the rest of my life alone.
You were there at my birth, and now I am here at your passing.
Time seems so long, ever ticking, until one day it stops and you wonder where it went.
You were there for every...

Inner StrengthIn the very early hours of the morning, when the dew is heavy on the ground, and the fog adds mystery to the empty roads: one can find a special serenity. Reflection of the years gone by or the beginning thoughts.
Like the dawning of this...

Into the FogI awake today not knowing where to go
Destination unknown hope is all I know,
Fog so thick you can cut it with a knife
Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
I drive it’s like flying through a cloud
With broken wings flight is still...

Alive"Another morning has arrived,
Your heart beating....alive
So thankful for another day,
And to Him, God you pray
For wonder and beauty,
Surrounding thee
In all that abounds,
Even from the quietest sound
Gratitude and happiness,
From all that you’ve been blessed
Wisdom to choose the right path,
Happiness for a relaxing bubble bath
Sincerity in what...
