OUR LAST DAY

If we knew today was our last day…

If we knew tomorrow was the end of our bloom

what would we do

how would we act

what would we say…

and to whom?

Would we sprinkle words of love a little freer

before we pass this way

Would we hold those we love a little tighter 

than we held them yesterday?

Would we stop and smell the roses

as we head out your front door…

Would we notice a little more beauty today 

than we did the day before?

Would we smile and laugh a little more

Would we sit and watch a river flow

Would we notice the birds and the clouds a little more 

than we did a day ago.

And so I wonder…

if there are things we would make it a point to do

before we pass away

So many things we want to say or do

why wait til our last day?
