Premium Member Time

Time is heartless. 
It will not stop and 
wait for you to ponder
Nor will it turn back 
when your tongue
slips and hurts another.

do you remember way back when
golden pleasures of simplicity
the magic of human connectivity 
it all seemed unpretentious then

calm waters are misleading;
the sailors fear not.
I thought, “Why don’t they turn back,
avoiding calamity?”

we walk the lines
and carry signs
kept this in  mind
 as you turn back the time
how hate was so blind
 now that your life shine

are too afraid to turn back

and look at that time

and u were my sunshine
That brightness of past
enlightens my heart
Doesn't matter 
even if we are apart

"All that is necessary is to turn back to our heart"/ 

preferring His Love (to distraction)/

Santa 2

Ho, ho, ho down the chimney he goes
Flames from the fireplace suddenly grows
So, he tries to turn back
With his very large sack
But the fire caught a hold of his toes

Premium Member OLD MEMORIES

May we be blessed to understand how old memories can make us smile…
as they allow us to turn back the clock
And pause in a moment of time…
if only for a little while.

It Was Great

What we had what we treasured, 
is no more.
What went wrong what we lost, 
was rare. 
I can’t turn back the hands of time, 
but it was great, 
and will not be forgotten…

Don'T Turn Back Now

don't bit your lips
going own with the ship

 sucess you or bound
DON'T TURN BACK NOW

Remake of the Chorus of the Song 1,000 Miles

if i could kiss you in the night
do you think i could turn back time
because you know i'd apologize a thousand times
just to hug you
just to kiss you
tonight

Premium Member Crossed Lines

once you cross the line
there is no way to turn back
words can't be undone...

once you break a heart
there is no way to heal it
the cracks will show through

Feelings of Autumn

Leaves bright
A wonderful sight
Brisk walks
Family talks
Hot soup
Balls and hoops
Warm socks
Turn back clocks
Hay rides
Kites glide
These are the feelings,
I never confide.

Premium Member Destination Known

The path is shady
    the gait, shaky
  Destination known
    elicits a moan

  Tried to turn back
    behind me all black 
  The only way, forward
    to the vast sea, shoreward

Ride On

ride on
ride on
don't turn back now

dream on 
dream on
it's closer than you think

stay strong
stay strong
follow your heart's path

ride on
dream on
take me there with you

Okay! I'Ll Settle For Cremation...

Wrap-me-up in a sheet, dig a hole, dump me in!
Let me fertilize a tree, would that be a sin?
Don't want no one cryin' over a shell of me...
Let me turn back to earth and rot naturally!
