You are what you count

Poetic Dan

Soon to be my birthday,  20th September will come again

I've long had the feeling of them not meaning much to me

Now so many people have passed on in this life, young, middle aged and old

I Started off a few years back, working out how many sessions I'd made it too

Now to the weeks, days and moments I live through

For it is truly easier said than done to live every day as your last, but once it is done, it then becomes easier done than said

So happy liveday to me and all of you
