So Few Reflection Times

It's so good to stop and reflect
fills one with peace and calm
puts everything in right perspective
without it life can be such a sham

But so often it's hard to find time
life is so full of pressure and pace
everything moves so fast and quick
the minutes fly away without trace

It's so important to stop life
get off to find real reflection
stand back and take deep breath
look to make correct life selection

Make it a regular real discipline
spending time to do some mind tuning
reflect on your life's goal personally
shape your inner bush to real pruning

Allow these young spring buds
to shoot forth into lovely flower
so summer shows it's full blossom
all because of that reflective hour

Man can be so busy chasing the wind not stopping to think if it is fast blowing into the horizon or it is blowing from behind him. #reflections it is.
