Premium Member The Same Leaky Old Boat
Today 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
But no one knows what that number is
Best thing is to ignore it and live life
As if you are going to live...

Job Hunting Seeds
Today 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...

Premium Member Pushing Up Daisies
Today 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

The First Day of the Rest of Your Life
today is the first day of the rest of your life
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...

Premium Member Cuts Like a Knife
Today is the first day of the rest of your life
Good or bad, happiness and strife, your choice
Hopefully, it's positive
It's your prerogative
Avoid the stresses that cut like a knife...

Premium Member Sure Been a Slice
Today 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...

Premium Member Un-Nice
Today 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...

Premium Member Torturing Mice
Today 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 Unsaid
Today, 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 Strength
In 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 Fog
I 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...
