Remember those that cut corners will go around in circles
And those with one’s mind attached to a string pulled which way what ever
Be of one’s self honest and the truth will find the right road.

Taking the Far Way
I'll take the far way
I won't cut corners
Or take shortcuts
The flesh moves on it's own
The mind understanding stillness
All the past remains set in stone
Thoughts of the future left unknown
Only in the now do I find my home...

The Candle of My Life
Sticky handprints on my door
Muddy truck tracks across my floor
Laundry piling up galore
Imperfect photos for decor
These are the things a mom adores

Little feet headed towards my bed
The darnedest things my kids have said
Neatly cut corners on sandwich bread
These are the thoughts occupying my head

Watching as my babies grow
Learning things, they didn't know
Tossing a ball to and fro
Wishing time would go so slow
The candle of my life, I dare not blow...

Life Is a Race
When the signal is given,
everyone steps on the line,
ready to start the journey of life.
Some focus on the goal,
striving to be the best.
Another moves on without care,
looking as others pass him by.
Many even cut corners,
cheating their way through the race.
Some may pay dearly for this.
Others may scale through without reprove.
Some may even run with speed,
but break the rules of the game.
These have no reward at the end.
So run your race with care,
to end well and get your reward....
