sunrise
blue skys
red and yellow
mellow

days come and days go
you never know
what you will grow
maybe darkness, maybe a rainbow
never know which way the wind will blow

time passes
sometimes fast
sometimes slow as mollases
but the die is cast
one things for sure, nuthin' ever lasts

today
and yesterday
they just pass away
with words still left to say
with life still left to play

tomorrow
happiness or sorrow
you can't borrow
no goin' back
time just fades to black

Yes time does pass but you make a valid statement in that we have to keep finding out what the day will bring.

You're so right! I'm gonna try to slow down the good days, by savoring and enjoying them as much as possible, hehehe, and I'm gonna try to speed up those bad suckers as much as possible by trying to focus on something positive or happier, or work to keep my mind occupied, in hopes that better times will come. Good poem, Steve!
