OUR DAYS ARE SONGS COMPOSED BY GOD

Life's a book written through,
Where the pages are the years.
There's good, evil, false, and true,
With laughter, sweat, and tears.

Our days are songs composed by God,
As we set them to music with pleasure.
His cup of life is for us to drink,
Though, He, decides the measure.

Hurried and worried, dawn till dusk,
There's no time for a curtain call.
We burn our candles from both ends,
And we 're lucky to be alive at all.

Cards are shuffled and hands are dealt,
For all to place their bets.
Youthful blunders, adulthood struggles,
And old age, with its regrets.

It matters not, how long we live,
But more, how well we play our part.
For the road to heaven is always near,
As long as there's truth in our heart.

Hi Tom, I enjoyed your poem. It does not have any forced language and the ideas flow nicely. I see you enjoy Edna St. Vincent Millay's work -- as referenced in the third verse, third line. My mother use to quote her four-line poem, First Fig, and you've incorporated the thought nicely in your poem. Thank you for sharing your beautiful poetry. Pam
