Thursday 13th June
Life is so fragile- like a fine bone china cup
One minute you are a young, like an excited pup
The years roll by and you’ve not a care in the world
Life wrapped up with so many memories they swirl
You wake each day and make plans for the future
Wishing and willing our retirement to come sooner
Sometimes life’s a battle of hard work and strife
We have a great faith that we will live a long life
But we will always have tomorrow to do the things we want
We almost become completely nonchalant
Then out of the blue your life’s turned upside down
Suddenly there is no way to turn it all around
As fragile as that cup that holds your daily tea
The future is never promised to you or to me
So never take for granted the day you have been gifted
Be thankful that you here and that you have existed
