Between The Past And Now Poem by Mario, Lucien, Rene Odekerken

Between the past and now
lies a life lived, with
all its ups and downs
with moments
of love and joy
and times
of pain and sorrow

Between the past and now
time showed us
success and failure
showed us
the consequences
of the mistakes made

Between the past and now
life grew older, and
the hair turned grey
and do we realize every day
more and more
that between now and the future
the time of life could finish
every single day
