"THIS IS THE FIRST DAY" by David Guilbault

This is the first day.
Counting them off now.
One by one, until they’re gone.
These stolen moments.
Blessings and favors.
Embrace them all, until they’re gone.

Gone from this life of wondrous woe.
Body and mind, spirit and soul.
And so it goes.

This is the first day.
Cherish them all now.
Look to the loves that you have sown.
Thank ev’ry heartbeat.
Rejoice in the kindness.
Awake to an unrelenting dawn.

Dawn brings a cure of light of hope.
Body and mind, spirit and soul.
And so it goes.

This is the first day.
The die it is cast now.
Fate is forged in kingdom come.
Born to the unknown.
Warmed by my children.
Owning time ‘til time is done.

Done are the days of toil and toll.
Body and mind, spirit and soul.
And so I go.
