Life in a Day

 

Life in a Day

The sunrise of Life's where it all begins

The Light starts to glow and nature grins

With soft gentle beauty and the song of a bird

We awake with such Hope from what we just heard

So young and so new we progress with the day

We eat, play and nap, listening to all that they say

The sun keeps rising shining its Light for all

Listening and Learning we head its call

This part of the day's filled with exploring and fun

We grow and we learn as we follow the sun

Each experience we have brings us farther along

Building our bodies and Faith to be strong

Don't look now but I think it's high noon

This day is progressing much too soon

Working and playing the day seems to fly

Filled full we forget to look to the sky

There are clouds and rain as our day does progress

Yet through it all we find Hope, Peace and Happiness

This day has been full yet there is so much more

The body gets tired but the soul wants to soar

The sky changes colors as the sun starts to set

Reflections of what we've done and those we have met

We share more of ourselves as our  day starts to end

It is wisdom, forgiveness and good wishes we send

This time of Life we look High Above

To see the sunset, given to us with Love

For at the day's end with such color and hue

God shows His Promise, that all will be new

So we end Life's day not with fear and sorrow

But with Love, Hope and Joy of our Promised tomorrow

Live your day open as you keep your heart

Then you will find comfort as the sun departs

No one knows how long is their day

Have Forgiveness and Gratitude come what may

Interacting with others and sharing with Love

Soar like an eagle on the wings of a dove

Life in a Day is how we should live

Enjoying it all and with Thanks we can give

Live with Love and Compassion and you will see

From sunrise to sunset you were all you could be
