Carpe Per Diem

Do it now

Lost in the moment, finding my way

back to the morning, the start of the day

where the feelings were flying and words went astray

what should I say?

I haven’t yet found out the way to make time

turn from the ugly and back to sublime

the rewind of memory turns on a dime

back to the prime…

Seizing this moment, I’m storming this tower

before life went sideways and sweetness turned sour

I suddenly realise I have the power -

This is the hour
