Now! Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Now!



NOW!
Not tomorrow when you're living it.
NOW!
Your life to live it is a gift.
Right NOW!
Don't make excuses where you sit.
Where is the benefit for you to get from doing this.
NOW!
Not tomorrow when your living it.
NOW!
Your life to get it is a gift.
Right NOW!
Unwrap yourself inspect the package.
You don't need that extra baggage.
Not NOW!
Or tomorrow sorrow borrows.
But NOW!
Don't make excuses where you sit.
Who does it benefit if just waste your gift.
Right NOW!
Don't make excuses where you sit.
Get up and live.
Every second that you get of it.
NOW!
Every minute that you get of it.
NOW!
Every hour that you get of it.
NOW!

And live life.
As you like.
Day and night.

NOW!

And live life.
As you like.
Day and night.

NOW!

But don't sit and think of your gift,
As a burden to bear!

Find something different that you don't do.
To do that,
NOW!
Find something different that you don't do.
To do that,
NOW!
Find something different that you don't do.

Find something different that you don't do!
