Do you feel the tremble in the air? Have you seen the time rush bye Why do the people in their cars seem so slow? Where do they go? Some with frowns upon their brows Their eyes down turned Many more with smiles upon their lips Stop I cry slow the rush What has caused this rift in time? Look at the children they frolic and run Enjoy their freedom join their game Hear the glee the shrieks of delight Hear the breeze and see the wind It sways the trees, ruffles the grass Can you feel its soft touch on your face? Stop tarry for a time Smell the flowers see the bees Take of your shoes let the sands of times go bye Walk in the water feel the touch on your toe Look do you see the fish as they flit in the flow Shade your eyes watch the glitter of light As it dances and sparkles across the waves Warm is the sun hold out your hands and breath Open your eyes to the wonders you will see Now do you know that the children you see? They are you and I |

Its true...time flies too quick. "Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule."~ Samuel Butler ~ |

Very good writing...people sure do get caught up in their everyday life without taking time to enjoy the beautiful gifts we have been given to enjoy. You make some real good points here and do it with a nice poetic style. |
