We go through life...madly
   rushing here and there
Never stopping to feel, never stopping
   to think
There may be no tomorrow
   Til its too late
And you have carelessly let
   slip away
The things you hold most
   dear
So if you only do one
   thing today
Let it be to tell someone
   you care
Dont let another moment
   pass
And spend your life
   regretting
That one missed chance
That one lost love
That friend you let slip away
Life is too short for regrets

Paula, I agree.  Nice message.  Sometimes we just rush through life with blinders on and miss so many good things.

You say it quite well here ... there is no mistaking any intent by the reader ... I wrote one ... not quite as clear as yours ... but I think we were on the same thought wave .......................

Labyrinth
~~~

Twilights'  tendrils ... gently  spreading
through  the  shadows  of  our  mind
~
Shadow  warriors ... ever  searching
signs  of  passage  that  we  find
~
Gentle  tendrils ... slowly  seeking
passage  to  our  land  of  lore
~
Turned  away  by  guards  patrolling
defending  still ... our  open  door
~~~
