The Days of My Life
By John Herlihy

We often speak of
Taking one day at a time.
When the day arrives
I pretend it is mine.
We haven’t a moment to spare,
In the light of the sun’s glare.
Every step that I take
May an entire world make.
Who knows but that one single act
Can become one great unique fact.
Step by step, piece by piece,
I make my way to enduring peace.
The days of my life but a wall,
That I climb steadily so as not to fall.

If we aren't climbing, we are going down--for sure.

Pah! Suns glare? Not sure the last time there wasn't a national cloud cover.

So often, one act does set new motion ablaze.
The one from above, sees all!
