31,540,000 seconds

365 days that go by

like a firework exploding far in the sky.

A true sense of awe and wonder

as the clock strikes 12, a loud thunder.

8,760 hours that go by.

Wait, stand, run, play, jump, fly.

So many places come out of the dark, into the light.

When we travel and see all that reflects light.

525,600 minutes

starts to feel like youve been a witness.

A witness to the year of death, terror, hate and destruction.

But also a witness to life and wonder, listen to the instruction.

31,540,000 seconds have gone by since last year,

now its your turn to be here.

Live and love, forgive and love,

let us make these 31,540,000 seconds the time of love.
