Life Is Uncertain/ I Am Already At The Age

“LIFE IS UNCERTAIN/ I AM ALREADY AT THE AGE..

“Life is uncertain
I am already at the age
That it my work ability may end any moment
If I have work to do
I should do it as soon as I can
With all my heart and soul and might”.

I wasted today
And I will have no time tomorrow
And I waste time all the time now
I am old
And I should do better.

But I do not work
And so almost all my work will be left
Half – done uncorrected- worse than it could be.

Is there anything in the world
That can move me to a bit of courage?
