Premium Member Changing Perspective

Watching my great grandson laugh
Wondering what his future holds
Realizing how short life is
As a new life unfolds
Did we change in all those years
Thoughts cutting like a knife
Changing perspective as we age
Changing times a way of life
We cannot turn the clocks back
Or bring back the time before
The future lies in his hands
Our good old days will be no more
When he reaches our age
Will he dream of days so long ago
Will there be a changing perspective
Of the things that he loved so
Generations pass as time goes by
Values and spiritual growth re arranging
Hopefully the core beliefs we knew
Would be passed on never changing
I wish him hard times, and a little rain
Some struggles just for now
I also wish him happiness
And all that heaven will allow.

Forget Your Past

He had you cornered, yelling at you
He swung to hit you but missed
I wish this was a lie but its true
Why couldnt he just walk away instead he got pissed

He hits you I crack
nothing can stop me
Its a proven fact

He has no right to hit anyone exspecially his own
He should stop and think
How you will feel when your feelings are alone

Instead you confide in me
Your forget the past with no looking back
For a bright future with things to see

You plus me
No anger or lust
Thats how it will be
with love and trust

Forget the past, good thing it didnt last
it was over and done so fast

I rescued you
from A past you once knew
To a future of happiness and love
I hope it's enough
So baby, dry your tears
"Forget your fears"
I forever and always will always be here
