In Just a Few Seconds

In just a few seconds so much 
can happen
Conception 
Murder
A drowning
Your first child walking across 
the stage
Your first born driving away
An emotional statement being 
said
After saying I Do
Letting go a friend whom you 
truly love to see if he/she 
would return
In just a few seconds so much 
can happen to change the rest 
of our lives!

I have taken the time out this a.m. To read a few of your poems and I realize your poems are life/reality. Therefore, that's why your able to relate to In a just a few seconds. I must say I totally agree with this poem because I always say to friends and family don't buy me flowers when I'm dead don 't come crying of their heads because at that time I won't be there to respond.
