RHYME OR REASON: Today

today


passing, fleeting, fading quickly

time is here for a moment only.

like a sunshine’s kiss that fades so fast

so, catch each moment if you must.

soon your eyes will be hazy or glazed

so do not let your sight go to waste.

soon the music will be silently playing

so be careful with what you’re hearing;

soon your tongue will dull in a minute

so taste and drink to your soul’s limit;

soon all scents will grow dreary and meek

so be cautious with the aroma you seek.

soon your touch will be numbed and rough

so cuddle like you cannot get enough.

look and search the value past the plane

and you’ll never see the same again.

learn to listen while you are able still

for yonder all noise will fall downhill.

enjoy the grace placed in your desk

for a grateful heart is beyond blessed.

breathe each aroma you so desire

for each fragrance will soon expire.

hold unto those you love the most

keep them close as you are supposed.

all your senses will soon fade in time

you will be left with no reason or rhyme.

the gift of now that you waste and burn

will never ever once more return.


live.
