A moment (for time is short)

Another day
another week
they move on through the years.
another good day–
followed up by a bad one,
such is life.
Another moment–
of complete clarity, understanding–
and yet another moment
of complete confusion, insecurity.
Another test of your will power,
another pain you have to cope with–
this is how life goes.
Another dream that fills your life with hope,
another one fades that leaves you hopeless–
the world keeps turning.
Another time of peace–
yet still another time of war.
A time for forgiving
and a time for scattering
our lives are full of these events.
But why do we keep fighting things
that we just can’t control?

For here in the moment is all we have
you can either live it up the best you can–
with what you have been given,
or you can fold– and see if there are better
things along the horizon–
but thous that always fold
never win the pot.
But these card that I have–
I will never fold on!
They always win!
The joys that come from
loving and serving the people that know
and care for you best.
What other card that my come my way–
come and go
but these cards are everlasting.
So play the cards you get
the best that you can.
Don’t cheat on the rules–
or the rest of us will throw you out.
For these moments
are all that you get.
