Technically, the Year’s Just Started
I realized the year’s just started, but time keeps moving fast
Yesterday we celebrated,
Now that day has passed.
Soon it will be my birthday, then that day is gone.
Tomorrow brings another spring
Look up and it’s summer!
Seems like blinking of an eye, it’s Christmas
What a bummer. (Not that it’s Christmas, just that the year is over)
Where does the year go anyway?
Why don’t we cherish every single day?
Before too long, they’ll all run out
We will be gone, without a doubt.
So, realize each day is blessed
Try hard not to waste it
Make each second, minute count
Spend it with your loved ones.
Read, write, cook, and play
Before the days are all gone.
I do wonder at what age that lament begins. When I was ill I was barely aware of the passing days, just a blur, could’ve been a year, could have been more (turns out it was 13-15 yrs, I’m still not sure). And when I recovered it seemed someone had wound up the mechanism that turns the world, and look, hey, the days and weeks and years are zooming around. Bad enough to say, Where have they gone? without having lost so many.
