Time Won'T Wait
Awake, I lay still,
Waiting day, under review.
Tempted to fall back
Asleep, and hold the day at bay.
I rise instead. Time won't wait.
I gather my thoughts
Over coffee freshly brewed.
A strategy formed,
To accomplish what I must.
I move on out. Time won't wait.
At end of day's length,
Assessing successes strong.
Smart to prepare first.
Then to put legs on my plans.
I rest a bit. Time won't wait.
The children come play.
Suspending all that is mine,
About cherished time.
Smiles and laughter reminding,
I choose to love. Time won't wait!
