JUST FOR TODAY, 48 years OF LIFE

As years go by
t´was only like yesterday
today, all the bygone years
are blown by the wind
to become an untraceable path.

Need to gather my thoughts
see how life has been
where I am now
what do I want
where I want to.

My being exists
and is, because I`m from God
my borrowed life for 48 years
is sufficient and beyond
what I expect and dream of.

What I thought
I can only live for 25 years
God gave me
23 years more
can I desire for 23 more years?

I have only today to account for
to enjoy and consciously spend
only TODAY, just for TODAY
I sincerely thank God
for completing my 48 years of life.

Tomorrow begins another year
a new day marks in the calendar
clock tic-tacs
and gifts unwrap
may the new year be full of concordance.
