Strike out of
Safe

Time awake
Is
Time to keep

Life happens

Changes never end

But
You'll long
To


Stay

Sunshine -- as long as you make up for it with "productivity" in the waking hours!

wpwpoet:  time flows away quicker than even money.  It's important to make the most of it...  I commend you on your attitude.

Trying to make the best of the time we have, and use each moment to bring happiness somehow. Sounds like a plan.

Our time is so very precious and should never be taken for granted.  It should be used to brighten the lives of others.
This was lovely Mark.  Take care.....Sue

Great message Mark!     said best with little words because it is a simple matter.  You either live for the day or you don't...it's all on your shoulders!  
Enjoyed!

This caught me "You'll (long) to stay" because life is so (short). A yearning and a duration. Enduring as much as we can in so little time. Makes one full of life.   Profound word for me. Long.
Sincerely,
Regina

We only have so much time,
I love these short ones
with great points
keep it up!

Excelent message, Mark. We want the present to stick around but things are always changing and then there is more precious present.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.
