Go, Go, Go

Life in the fast lane ... is go, go, go, Fleeting in vain ... Take the one that's slow 100 miles per hour Pedal to the metal, One foot has the power To let that needle settle Time goes by fast It goes fast enough, Speeding right passed All the good stuff Rush, rush, rush There is time to lose, With stop signs lush They're there to use Take a break ... With life, superb, For your own sake Pull over to the curb.

Kelly, I couldn't agree more with the message you convey here in each of your five stanzas. I'm certainly of the opinion that life has sped up too much for my liking. Sometimes we just need to pull off life's speeding highway and...breathe. Live for now. Appreciate all that is around us. I took my time reading this and enjoyed the rhyme and sentiment. Cheers - Gary

Yes if we are not rushing..In travel we are Being rushed into descisions, by conglomrets And authoritys; etc.' Its time to buckle up and Stand for our reason I think Kelly, good words To cause thought.'

ahhh the sage within has visited you i see.....and a point well taken...as mom always said....if it was a snake it would have bit you....life requires focusing...Eagles fly above the storm, remember the lesson, it reduces life's stumbles

Yes, and sometimes we all need a little reminder of those forgotten lessons... Thank you so much for reading, Timothy :)
