A Word To the Wise

life's no dry run
turn back,turn about start over;
all loving is for free
viewed from bended knee
looking we only see
listening is to be;
caring and sharing
exploring,if daring
looking we only see,
listening is to be;
life's everlasting lotions
challenge transient notions
looking we only see
listening is to be;
exude our unique self
release that inner wealth
looking we only see
listening is to be;
participating with the other
giving assurance of a mother
looking you'll only see
listening is to be;

life's no dry run
turn back,turn about ,start over.
