Creating Our Futures

Let's pretend that 
children we are,on 
shiny bikes.
Whizzing about our 
charming town.
So welcomed we 
were by all the local
business owners.

Back then,a child could 
buy an eraser from a 
big jar.
Even go alone~not in 
Daddy's car!

Times today so pressured, 
fearful and fast.
No time for our friends or 
so we ponder.
Till suddenly they are gone 
and down under!

Cherish the minutes you 
breathe.

People rushing past each 
other?
Prevents us from time 
and loving one another.
Make space for loving all 
religions and colors,
But look, if you can into 
their angel eyes!

You both can do a circle 
dance of gladness, and it's 
no surprise!
Messages do flash of hope 
and togetherness.
We honor God and His 
bountiful Holiness!

Hi Tom. Boy are you right. That does not mean, we must Live in a creepy world. Creating Our Futures is exactly what I meant...not weeping over days of goes. Sorry if I came off as such, Pangie xx
