Time is such a mystery,
The days seem very long
The years fly bye, they're history,
Too soon they've come and gone.

Grasp each hour with passion,
Each minute should be cherished,
Quickly our life passes,
All but memories perish.

Take advantage of your dreams,
Make all you can come true,
No matter how long it seems,
The years are very few.

Toe, this moves me more than I am able to express ~ as you well know. You are so much more than just a pretty face! Through your writing you are able to connect with peoples' minds, hearts, and spirits! ~ as well with their bones of funny.

This was a heart to heart poem, and it was very meaningful and special.

Love you, Dear SBT!

As I spend this weekend trying to cherish every moment, keeping the looming drought of "without" at bay a few more days... this moves me to tears. Beautiful write, my friend...

Psychological thought from the toeman....scary...and yet true as it can be. Sometimes being reminded of our own mortality can make us see things in new ways.

Nice words, Scott..

Toerag...

Thank you for such a lovely verse. Makes me want to embrace the "now" even more than I already do.

I realised today how true this is when my sister and her boys came to visit. I can't believe how quickly they're growing!

Great write!

Hi Toe,

I'm new here. What an uplifting poem. I have been reading various poems and noticed a lot of them are negative or downbeat. Keep up the good work.

What a wonderful write from you dear Toeman.
How true ..the years fly by faster the older we get.
Life is merely a blink of the eye.
Love this style...it looks good on you.

Hard to answer this one, Brother Toe.... I like what I see, and in some ways I don't....

Like life, I'll go with the good.
