Poem: We Won't Have This Day Again

We Won’t Have This Day Again
Another fall will soon be here.
Winter enters, with a flurry,
and soon is gone - another year!
As we age, the years seem shorter.
In a flash, the days go by.
We come to know our limitations -
if not all the reasons why!
We pick and choose our undertakings…
the things we do from day to day.
We try to fill the empty spaces,
of what we’ve missed along the way.
We know, fully, time is fleeting,
with no way to reign it in!
We take each day and what it offers!
We won’t have this day again!

its immpossible to make time stop and wait... sometimes I wish we had a pause button, but time is quiet unfair...
Yes,Faery, and it seems more unfair as you get old.
We have to take each day as it's given and get all we can from it-hopefully more good stuff than bad! :)
