A poem of taking things slow
~Take a moment, to catch your breath.
  Calm your nerves, this isn't a test.
  Be silent child, it's only one day.
  Hush and relax, it's not the only way.
~I know it can be hard, but it's possible.
  I know it isn't fun, but it will happen.
  We know this from experience.
  Just give it a chance
~Believe me when, I say you can.
  Have faith close by, enclosed in your hand.
  You will be guided, and utterly confused.
  You will be happy, and do what you do.
~Hope only works, to keep you going.
  Home only has, a place in your heart.
  Life only lives, if you keep on rolling.
  Love only works, if you fall apart.
~Golden in your eyes, a ray of hope.
  The future is so near, and bearing to cope.
  Fear is only a day, without any plans.
  Joy isn't only, a day hand in hand.
~What's done is done, there's no going back.
  Brains and science, for time we all lack.
  One Day At A Time, and one set of mind.
  Benevolently unheard, avoiding the unkind.
~The fireworks flare, across a smoky sky.
  Alone and beckoning, never too late to fly.
  We will all be there, as a flash of light.
  A coursing notion, to move us from our plight.
~Many arranging, what used to be theirs.
  Now only a spec, to deliver their heirs.
  One last thing, before I take my leave.
  One Day At A Time, is all that you need.
