walking on the edge of life
a desire to live still alive
I wish the time stands still
as they enjoy every minute
a smile they share
as it pains within
a hope of life
inspires them to grin
Ask them what life means
its not yesterday, nor tomorrow
Its in today, they explain
a great truth revealed
Fighting cancer all while
they teach us to live
what difference a day makes
ask them to know the best
Just another day its never
one more day with loved ones
they relish, they celebrate
and wish, one more day please
What difference a day makes
ask those who have none
they live in today
while we are busy
thinking about the future..!!

Today is a gift given to each of us, that is why they call it the present...
Great thoughts Yamini, living to meaningfully effect those around us is hard to do, when we're constantly obsessed with plans and ambitions.
Interesting. I never thought of the prompt in that way. To the dying, each day means so much. Thanks for posting this.
