it is all it is
Simplify
A struggle ensues every time
that we leave our Front Door
Realize
That all that we do just has
somebody asking for more
Its Our Call
To stretch ourselves thin to the point
that we feel we might break
Stand still
And ask yourself this "Can we give
more than they can take?"
Life is short
A moment in time
meant to be spent joyfully
Consider
The Flowers of May that dance
in the breeze beautifully
Its been said
By one Lovely in thought
They toil not nor do they spin
Then step back
and ask one more time
Are we living the life that we're in?
It's a wonderful Journey
a gift
