~TIME TO SMELL THE ROSES~





Take time to see around you

So much that we take for granted

We all miss those little things

Which mean much more in life



~0~



We blindly make our way sometimes

Not knowing where we are

Not knowing for sure how or  when to stop

Or what at the end of the rainbow waits for us



~0~



Most of the time the world seems,

For us such a confusing and  lonely place

We want so much more all the time

Than what in the present we might have



~0~



Things come and go with the speed of time

Rushing and groaning the days are drifting by

Adept the fingers of time never pause for a moment

In time  leafing continual  pages of joys and of…sorrows



~0~



We should learn to stop for a moment

From our very busy lives and take a look around

And really see what we might be missing all the time

Everyday of our lives when we’re in pursue of other things



~0~



We should learn to stop for a moment

And really smell the roses that are paved in our way

To stop for a moment and appreciate everybody

That God had given us to love and care everyday



~0~



The world spins around and never stops,

For you and me things may  not be always right

Always something missing always something lacking

Out of life, in the distance we hear the peals of laughs



~0~



Smiles leave reflections clamoring for much more

Much more than what we perceive and seek

Chained up by days and more days

We follow right behind scratching for more air



~0~



But the world never stops for you and me

It will never stop for you and me

And never had stopped before for no one

And you know very well that it will never will



~0~



So make the best of what you now have

Breathe deep and never stop dreaming

Because dreams have a way of coming true

If you persist and never give up and be true to yourself!
