Time

Speak softly
feelings are real
watch your words
life is a big deal

handle your friends
as if an only child
keep good humor
love is in a smile

teach needed skills
to children in need
they are the future
plant good seeds

wisdom is guidance
from those who know
listen to the elders
sunshine to grow

pray a little prayer
sing a little song
life is waiting
time is ticking on

What a beautiful day and how wonderful it is to be able to read what was on your mind and in your heart when you wrote this poem Christy. I hope you have a weekend full of new found inspiration. Love, Carol
