What Granny Would Say

I had a very hectic day today

Seems nothing I did went  my way.

I fretted and stewed and worried,

 Rushed here and there, always hurried.

Then I recalled what my granny would say,

"This too, my dear, will pass away."

~~~~~~~~~~

Finally evening came and I was alone

With a little time to call my own.

I breathed a sigh into the air,

For now it seemed I hadn’t a care.

But in my memory, I heard granny say,

"This too, my dear, will pass away."

~~~~~~~~~~

So, I snuggled in for a good nights rest,

Vowing tomorrow just to do my best,

For when troubles come they never stay,

And good times seem to hurry away,

Granny was right when she would say,

"This too, my dear, will pass away."

~~~~~~~~~~

Enjoy the good times while they’re here

And face the bad times without fear

For nothing on earth lasts forever

Each moment of life we must savor.

Live life and love while you may,

For this too, my dear, will pass away.
