Price We Pay Rising in the morning we turn to face the day. Hustle bustle rise and shine we go along our way. Missing birds up in the trees and flowers that are growing. Missing everything it seems of things that we aren't knowing. Skipping over things unseen and lessons we aren't learning. One more way a price we pay for daylight that we're burning. Edwin C Hofert
