Time
If a wish could be granted for me it would be for more time to see
All the wonders of earth and more time in this space my soul has chosen to grow;
Please time go slow.
There’s so much to learn and so much to do it’s hard each day to see it all through,
And I sometime feel that my time is not real but just in my mind as each day I leave behind;
With always a wish there was more time to fit it all in
and where to begin.
How do I choose which is right for me when there is so much my heart wants to see.
I wonder if time will stretch for me with spreading arms that grow like a tree.
And I must remember it all should be fun even the days when I’m on the run,
And then I remind myself, just love, breath, pause, and feel the sun.
For if love comes first in all that we do then there’ll be enough time to see us all through to the next timeless step of our soul as we leave this place in search of our goal.
