Today's Poem

What You Have

Work with what you have, my friend
Things come, things go, and some things end
No point in wishing life away
Or wondering where went yesterday

For here and now is where we are
Say yes or no, you may go far
And if the dream was not to be
Then perhaps it's time to try plan B

Fret not, for life's too short you know
We're here but then we have to go
At all times try to calm and bless
Why don't some folk like happiness?

In simple pleasures and careful ways
Keep growing through your nights and days
And when you find some time, reflect
That what you have you can't neglect
