Poem de Jour

By Hook Or By Crook

The days tumble by
The nights roll along
We tell a few lies
We sing a few songs

We have some regrets
But nothing that odd
We live in our memories
And onword we plod

We're all feeling younger

As we're all growing old

But the wisdom we carry
Is more precious than gold

We know about life now
And we know about pain
We've all learned the hard way
To keep it restrained

We know about fear
And we know about joy
We rejoice in the small things
Like good girls and boys

And at the end of it all
At the end of the book
We'll have made a whole lifetime
By hook or by crook

Choices

Guess what life is not a game of life or death, it is a game of life and death. The bad news is you and I will never make it through life alive. As we move through life, many of us mistake 'satisfaction for security.  This is a serious error.  Being satisfied can: · destroy your ...
