A Sunrise To Sunset Poem by Rey Sanidad

In the early morning...
Hope is calling aloud,
And your heart is afire with Youth's desire
To hurry along with the crowd.
But linger a bit by the roadside,
And lend a hand by the way,
It is a curious fact that a generous act
Brings leisure and luck to a day.

In the noontime...
There is chance enough to be kind
But the hours run fast when noon has passed,
And the shadows are close behind.
So think while the light is shining,
And act before the sunset,
For the sorriest woe that a soul can know
Is to think what it might have done.

When it is almost evening...
The twilight hour is long.
If you listen and heed each cry of need,
You can right many a wrong.
For when we have finished the journey,
We will all look back and say
'On life's long journey there was nothing worth'while
But the good things we did along the way.'
