This life is getting shorter,
But the days themselves
Have begun to linger a little longer;
Staying behind just enough time
To be appreciated as they pass.
I soak them in
One by one,
And am no longer uneasy
To see them depart,
Vanishing into night,
Because I know that tomorrow
Will be just as sweet.
They come and go more delicately now,
Giving more
And taking less,
So that life itself can be lived
To its fullest extent,
And we may have the contentment of knowing
Where all our time went.

I like that thought a lot! *S* Welcome to Passions!
