In the next life
if reincarnated
as a mayfly
I am designated
it's good enough for me
with nothing but fun
for twenty-four hours
(under the sun)
until the race is run
bonking here bonking there
I'll be bonking everywhere
non-stop until I drop

I just started it
When they said it's over
I was on my way
When it was night again
Twenty four feels like Two
You will never know why the day ended so soon
You'll be just walking for five minutes
And the sun will get replaced by the moon

Twenty four hours and his day has just begun.
A smile in his eyes whilst getting ready for ‘fun’.
One hour and he’s deep in the field.
Living on instinct and training with concentration so real.
One minute and he’s in the fight of all fights.
Rounds flying past him, adrenalin pumping through his mind.
One second and do you think that he could know? A flash of light out of the corner as I squeeze my trigger…
This life lets him go.

I am staring at another day of doing what I want
A whole day
Twenty-four hours
Not easy to embrace
It is too cold to go outside
I have called two friends and spent three hours
Painting in my studio
Great fun?
Not exactly.
Would be but...
My brushes are too used
Not as much fun now
Perhaps today
Happened for a reason
To show me how horrible It will be
To retire and have all day
To figure out where and
Who I will be
Also a wake up call
Showing me that I need
To order new brushes
If I expect to enjoy
Spring break In two weeks
Good plan, God.
Bravo!
Well played
Tenth snow Day of this Year...

This final day on earth
so many thoughts fill the mind
firstly I must thank my God
for His faithfulness so kind
Then ponder on my future state
God's assured in heaven for me
this old earth will one day perish
so grateful I've received salvation's key
But they are friends left here
whom I will have to wave goodbye
hope to see them one day soon
in God's glory when they die
Would think on joys I've had
of music and walks of nature
be glad to be rid of stammer
soon I'll have the fluent cure
So look ahead to final moments
as my earth lights go out
to awake in my eternal glory
this I believe without a doubt

Jesus help my family when I'm gone
O God, be merciful to my family
Bless the good I've sown
O God, be merciful to me
Spare me from the evil I've shown
O God, be merciful to me
My loves are close to my heart; my loves are close at home
O God, be merciful to my family
One more second, one more day to be known
God has been merciful to me!
For Audrey's contest themed one day left to live in the kyrielle form.

If all I had left to live is twenty-four hours
I will plant a green garden with flawless flowers
I will pick for my friends and fans some red roses
I will be ready for that home more glorious than the galaxies
I will never be sorry and sad but be grateful and glad
For a life well spent with my family… mom and dad
I will thank God for making me fervent and faithful to the end
Before I finally fly, I will bid farewell to my foes and friends
I will take account of the lovely and lively life I’ve lived
I will say a sincere sorry to all those I have grossly grieved
I will pray for the hopeless and helpless men and women
I will ask God to save them from the devil’s deadly den
If I had one day left to join the holy angels that hail hallelujah!
I will make my heart and hands ready to sing and hail hosanna!
