If You See Me Coming

If You See Me Coming
Kevin Davis 2025

If you see me coming, don’t be alarmed—
I move with ease, no need for charm.
I only wish to brighten your day
With laughter, kindness, along the way.

Though time has passed, my mind still shines,
A trove of stories, wisdom, rhymes.
If you have something new to share,
Tell me—and I’ll hold it with care.

Now I speak of life’s winding road,
Lessons learned and love bestowed.
From youthful dreams to steady ground,
In every tale, something profound.

And if you’re not in the mood to talk,
I’ll simply smile and join your walk.
No harm, no hurt, no bitter trace—
Just understanding, time, and grace.

For age has strengthened heart and soul,
And softened every wound of old.
I choose love over fear each day,
And share my joy in my own way.

So know, whatever you choose to do,
I’ll hold respect and warmth for you.
For I give thanks for the life I weave,
And all the good in what I believe.
