I sat and I wondered, to myself in my head, what shall I do before going to bed? "There's not much day left; there's no time ...

Poem 241: New Beginnings

9 years ago I sat and dreamed of things beyond my reach
3 years ago I conquered them and then I traveled free
After some time I built new dreams that grew out from my first
in just three days I'll meet those goals and then I'll be unsure
of what dreams to dream

10 years ago I planned for now, but life changed-up the scene
8 years ago I thought I knew exactly where I'd be
1 year ago I formed the future 3 years after now
but something changed between those years and life begged for a vow
of rest

In ten years I have asked myself just where I'll want to be
in five years I am still unsure of what God has for me
In 2 years I know I would like to look back on my life
and be proud to have lived no matter how much of time's strife
I see

Since I do not know what the years that come might claim to hold
and since I have no plan or concrete future goals
since my life is currently up in the wind untold
I'll focus on the next few days and live my life 
in BOLD
