There Is No Time
Time, time, it is free for all but is so priceless,
We must let go of the past- live in the present;
The crazy thing is that it does not cost a cent,
Now, right now is the time to go after your dreams.
Many of us stay in jobs that are just mindless,
And in relationships turned poison and shallow;
Time to dust off those dreams and success will follow,
There is no time like the present to dream it seems.
Travel all emerald paths and follow blue streams,
This life is fleeting- eternity infinite . . . ;
Make each new moment beautiful and exquisite,
Just start where you are because if not now, the when?
Live the life you imagined, find your own sweet Zen,
Start here and now before your time runs out. Amen
Recently I saw,
My life was going nowhere,
Working a job below me.
So, I said to me,
Self, no time like the present,
It is your time to just shine!
