In Life We Scurry

We race to the finish...

Skipping the in betweens...

Jumping hurdles...

Never experiencing the scenes...

If we only took the time...

Time to enjoy the wine...

Time to enjoy the laughter...

Of life's missteps...

Losing to our regrets...

Sheltered by our angst to reach the end...

We never stop and hear...

All the words we fear...

Disguised by blessings...

Are life's lessons...

If we only took the time...

Took the time to let them reach our mind.
