Dead-set

A Poem by Dylan Macadham
"

a Poem in 12 lines

"

Life will unfold,

while we endeavor to forget,

that our time in the sun,

is for All dead-set.

We can wait for it to begin,

or seize the day,

taking it square on the chin,

as we work and play.

The years will pass,

no matter our bent;

We will sink in the morass,

when our days are spent.

This poem makes me think of that old saying " make hay while the sun shines". After all, we are a long time dead. Seize the day is a good philosophy on life.
