Now

Forget the day that has been cut off from thy existence; disturb not thyself about tomorrow, which has not yet come, rest not upon that which is no more; live happily one instant, and throw not thy life to the winds.

Knowing there's only so much time,
I don't rejoice less but more.
Knowing how many things will now
not happen, I wish them Godspeed
and pass them on to someone
down the line. I honor my
regrets, the part of me that

Now I wont die young,
another one of my wasted chances.
My decisions cant be explained by inexperience,
Im seasoned, well matured for death.
I no longer weigh what would have been wiser

A flower of God's design;
But I cannot unfold the petals
With these clumsy hands of mine.
The secret of unfolding flowers
Is not known to such as I.
God opens this flower so sweetly,
Then, in my hands they die.

Doing Good

Through this toilsome world,alas!
Once and only once I pass;
If a kindness I may show,
If a good deed I may do

Let me do it while I can.
No delay, for it is plain
I shall not pass this way again.

The melancholy days are come,
the saddest of the year,
Of wailing winds,and naked woods,
and meadows brown and sear.

Age appears to be the best in four things-old wood best to burn,old wine to drink,old friends to trust,and old authors to read.
