Make It Count

Calendars are ubiquitous
Making time tick at us
The counting of hours
Both pleasant and sour
Reminding us all
Of deadlines that call
Timing could be perfect
Or things could be wrecked
Depending on your planning
There is only one question remaining
Is it time?
Or not?

Suits You

Deepest and Darkest, the most intense hue

Calls to mind violence, death and sorrow

Strange as it seems, it always suits you

But never was I, one troubles to borrow

Let’s save all the pondering stuff for tomorrow

Concentrate only on the needs of the day

Party and play while the time bleeds away

You only have reason to question your life

If you don’t like where the possibilities lay

You have no one to blame for your strife

Priorities

When with friends we smile and say

Forget the work and cease the day

We need love to guide the way

So call in sick or stay away

Before, with stress, you fade away

So with friends we smile and stay

Tomorrow’s work will go away

If you doubt it, then look away

You need a love to guide your way

Can you question what I say,

That priorities have gone to hay?

When with friends we smile say,

We no longer need love to guide the way!
