Never Wish A Day Away
You only have so much time, in memory of a friend.
Never wish a day away
Never miss a moment
You never know how long you have
To be alive and your health in hand
We take for granted the time we have
We wish away the bad times
Not enough for the good
Enjoy each day, no matter what
You never know if it is your last
Take a break and thank God
For your life given every day
Lessons on how fast it can be taken away
So, live every day, every second
Love all those around you
Each day is brand new
Live to the fullest
Death will come to all of us
But appreciate the time you have
A new opportunity every morning
See the goodness all around
Each moment a memory to be made
To never wish it away

The Golden Valley
The difference between light and dark could be as quick and simple as a flip of a switch, the drawing of a curtain, the opening of one’s eyes. It could be more gradual like the slow adjustment of the diaphragm on a microscope, the turn of a planet on its axis, the growing light as you approach the end of a tunnel. A flicker in the dark, a steady glow in the distance, a flash in the night sky.

Sometimes we take things for granted. Your poem was a reminder to not do that.
