This poem really means something to me, and I wrote it from my heart. This poem, for just some reason, has a lot of meaning to me. I wrote it this afternoon. And I really hope that this means the same to you as it does to me.




Life goes by,
Without warning.
You notice you hit 50,
One morning.

I seen it happen,
And pray it dont happen to me.
Oh I don't want to die young,
Is all I plea.

I wanna grow old,
And live happy with loved ones.
With someone who loves me,
Tons and tons.

I hope I'll have a happy life,
With much family and friends.
At least until,
My life ends.

Anyone can write, But only poets can capture the heart.

(smiles) That's why Sammy Hager sings you can't drive 55, you got to walk off the highway and look around and enjoy the blessings around you as there is so much love to share and behold! (big hugggssssss) I agree with you, this is a very special poem because it reflects the loving soul you are, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I love this heartsong of yours. Love life, love yourself and share love and LIVE IN THE NOW to the fullest .....that's the secret of a fulfilled life.
I think no one is totally "immune" to a certain melancholy regarding the quick passing of life and you have expressed it beautifully.
Love, Margherita

For all for whom this poem resounds
Every decade brings new bounds
But you have captured many cares
The passing of time always scares.

Nicely done and written with heart.  KJ


Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

Connel,

Self expression of true feelings.
You captured well how many feel, I think.

Connel...I know what you mean, having a close call with death can be a real eye opener and allows us to embrace life each day knowing that we could be gone in a second...Paul
