Days are Long, Life is Short

by Carmen Taggart

Hurry
Hurry
Grass needs mowing
Weeds need tending
Bills paid.
Slow down
Kids are growing
Love is fleeting
Fireflies won’t stay.
Hurry
Chores are calling
Phone is ringing
Crops harvested.

Slow down
Roses falling
Laughter surrounding
Taste of your lips

Time
waits for no one
A fickle mistress
Hurry,
Hurry,
Slow down,
Slow down . . .
