Ponderance On Life

As I thought about life today I pondered on my past The roads been full of twists and turns Yet travels by so fast Did I follow every dream. I sought Long enough to know Some exits that I should have taken I've passed some time ago Should I follow where my heart leads me And what I seek to find Or settle for the here and now To soon regret in time Would a second chance reveal the way It should have turned out first Did I miss the signs that I passed by Their reflection now a curse Faster with each passing day Lifes clock goes round and round As age goes up each passing hour My miles keep counting down Do I hit the brakes to slow me down Get off and look around I thank the Lord for my journey here Through sometimes puddled ground Can I stop to smell the coffee Before it spills on my lifes lap And realize all roads lead to love Ourselves the only trap So when in time I'm out of gas My journey near its end Let the mirror show, what I still know I'd do it all again
