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

Grasp each hour with passion,
Every minute you should cherish,
So quickly our life passes,
And 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.

Think about the 31st,
Daylight savings time will end,
You'll gain another hour,
For your family and friends.

In front of a fire
with a glass of wine,
or straight from the jug...
I'll treasure these moments,
as you chug-a-lug...



Now Toe...here you are serious,
and I'm not.



Yea, I am.

Right?

Toerag

I thought this was a fabulous write.  Your words flowed so well and were very much enjoyed by this reader.  Here in Melbourne, Australia we are about the lose an hour as daylight savings begins for us but we'll make up for the hour at the end.

Take care........Sue

It's so good to read the softer side of you Toe.
This piece is so true..every word.
A keeper for my library.

*I see you send your pic out to other's on here too?!*
