Carpe Diem

Michael McGuire

This day is ripe for Victory and your
heart beats heavy with the rhythm of
Freedom; I can tell.

Under miserly taskmasters and shackles
of shame, you have worked toward tomorrow's
amber and gold Horizon of Hope without profit;
all in vain!

Now, it's time to ask yourself what the
future holds for you; and beyond that question,
see yourself, grasping with pride, YOUR future!

Without compromise! Without consent!

For you are here but once to live your life any
way you wish! No self-pity, lack of confidence,
modesty or fear allowed!

So charge into battle young warrior! Take
back thy Soul and Seize the Day; for tomorrow,
the future, and Forever!

So be it, until Life is yours once again as was
originally intended by the grace of God!
