What are we if we do not try? What are we if we do not try?What are we if we do not try? by ~Monarch-of-the-Fen
To be lived is for what life was meant:
We have only time before we die.
Determined strokes are how to fly
The lashing storms of our intent:
What are we if we do not try?
Yet time and time, we sit and sigh,
Do only what will pay the rent:
Oh, so much time until we die.
And in life’s currents, let drift by
Opportunities heaven-sent:
What difference even if we try?
Till one aged day we look back, cry,
And wonder where the time all went:
So little time until we die.
Excuses cover this with lies:
To be lived is for what life was meant.
What are we if we do not try?
We have only time

They called me hyacinth girl.
I thought I was a never-get-things-done type, but you've got me beat. I look forward to reading more of your writing some time before I become a grandmother.
