Time | ||||||||||||||||||||||
So elusive is time. Turn and its gone. Years in the blink of an eye. Fleeting, forever gone. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Take time, its freely given. Touch a rose. Smell a baby's neck. Feel a breeze on your cheek. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Take time to listen. Hug and kiss your child. Hold your lovers hand. Keep your aging mother close. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Listen to the hummingbird. See butterfly wings flutter. Taste a sunripe blackberry. Feel the spring rain. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Spinning around. Colors and scenes rushing by. Feel the laughter rise in your throat. Hear the wind carry it away. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Dry a friends tears. Mourn a friend's passing. Take time, its fleeting. Take time, its freely given. |
