My day has past, It would not last. But why did it go? Destiny made it so.
I pleaded with my day, But it refused to stay. I thought I controlled time. Soon learned it wasn't mine.
How quickly my day went. How unwisely was it spent. Can't get my day back. It left no traceable track.
My day has past. It went too fast. So much I didn't do, Because I chose not to.
Instead I got lost in dreams Of golden ponds and streams Where fairies bathed and giggled As pure waters against them trickled.
I could have set a goal; Fought valiantly and bold To accomplish some good thing Before the dawn of spring.
Instead, I sat downcast And let my day go past. It gave me time aplenty, But I did as has so many.
On my couch I happily sat My legs stretched out on mat Remote control clinging in hand T.V. sitting on its stand.
Potato chips close by, A coke to satisfy, The thirst raging within Sweet sleep soon to begin.
My day I so abused By letting it go unused. Desire can't bring it back. Regrets can't change the fact.
Too late, too late I know For now it’s time to go. Penitence no longer heard Begging is now absurd.
Opportunities no longer exist. Chance, a faded mist. Tears overflowing at last, Because my day has past.
So I must sit and wait For the mighty hand of fate. Judgment swift and fast Because my day has past.

Dear brother in Christ Jesus, my soul rejoices is your love and comment. All glory to God. I too feel bad when I let a day go unused. It feels like I giving away a piece of my life to the wind. I may not accomplish all that I should but I must accomplish something meaningful to feel worthy of the time gift God has given me. All love and peace in His name. | |
