Our days are numbered,
Each daylight is special,
Every so often, we smile,
While, in some other moments, we go red.
Like Napoleon, some of us try harder to attain,
Something that will make us eternal,
In this world, mortal,
Few others are not in a hurry to, anything, gain.
Yet, the days get subtracted like seconds,
Oh God! Let us leave our footprints before death descends.
