Honor He Wrote Sonnet 41

Don’t worship your past,
At the expense of your present.
Don’t glorify the future,
At the expense of the present.
Don’t worship the dead,
At the expense of the living.
Don’t admire the unborn,
While overlooking the living.
It’s only by lifting the living that,
We build a better world for all progeny.
It’s only by being kind to the living,
That we truly honor our ancestry.
Honor is earned not begged for.
Honor the living, ‘n all time will be grateful.

“Life is just three days…” Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets

Life is just three days –
yesterday, today, tomorrow;
yesterday is gone,
tomorrow may not come,
all we have is today –
so in actuality,
life is just one day, today –
rest is either memory or imagination.
