Poetry: Live for today

It is ours to make, it is ours to enjoy;
So go out today and make it the best.

Do what you feel, what your heart tells you,
A wasted chance is a wasted day,
A wasted day is wasted time,
And time in its entirety is precious,
Limited and speedy.

Go out today and give it your all,
Give it your best, give it all you have.

Tell someone you love them;
Make romance your perspective,
Make love your reason to live.

Set your goals and walk the path;
Run them if you can, but rush you must not,
Steady, slowly but surely,
But do not waste this precious day!

Chase that sunlight and embrace the moonlit night;
Go out today and give it your all,
Give it your best, give it ALL you have!
