When Time is Short


There's so much left unfinished
when its time for us to go,
like the salmon swimming upstream
against the river's flow.

A poem that's left unwritten;
A story with no end;
A song without the music;
A child without a friend.

We do our best to comprehend
what lies for us in store,
but can't help thinking in the end
there always could be more.

So let us all remember
each day by passing day
to lend a hand to others
and help on their way.

For God will smile upon us
when our work on earth is done;
the battle finally over...
the victory finally won! 

~ Karen Taylor

And let us not grow weary
while doing good,
for in due season
we shall reap
if we do not lose heart.
Galatians 6:9
