Carpe Diem

Lifepoems

I bid thee all
A cheerful greeting,
And a solemn farewell....
For even as I begin to see the world,
And speak these words,
I realize
That my time runs thin.
No sooner than it begins, does it end,
And so I shall seize it now,
Today is my day,
Carpe diem
As the Grecians say.
I give you an analogy,
If time is a field,
Mine is but a meager blade of bluegrass
Dancing on the wind.
Unimportant, yet, unique.
And so now as the end draws near,
I reiterate my solemn goodbye,
And leave these words of advice:
Life is too short.
Look, mine's already passed by.

Reading your poem, I remind a Arcadic brazilian poet called Tomas Antonio Gonzaga
(who wrotes poems with this same theme), in spite do not telling calling.
I'd like to thank you for this singular poem.
