As life goes on

 by Jahirah Jalal Abidin

ONE When my life is over, and my jobs are done.
I know there is a place for me, behind the shining sun.
I'll float across the midnight sky, and dance around a star,
yet stay so close beside you, "I haven't traveled far."
I've lost the shell I lived in, yet still remain the same,
every moment passing, a loving strength I gain.
Like a new born baby, fresh and bright and new,
yet every ounce of knowledge, I've taken with me too!
I stand beside you strongly, each and every day,
watching you, guiding you, in a different way.
Just because I'm out of sight, does not mean I'm gone,
we never see the wind that blows and yet we hear his song. 

TWO Life is so precious

And each day a gift
So enjoy every minute
As it were you last to live

Cherish your loved ones
Hug them tight
Share with them your heart
And your time

Nothing is forever
And life goes so fast
Each minute that passes
Is one you can’t get back

When troubles arriveAnd knock you off your feet
Stand up and smile
And remember life is too sweet

Every morning when you wake,
Decide right from the start,
That “Today will be a good day”
And let it all in with an open heart
