[hometext] => I wrote this one day in deep thought about life and the past.
[bodytext] => Lies Within If only there was a time machine I’d wade through memories, stop where it seemed That life was gentle, warm and kind When the troubles of life were not on my mind. I’d gaze at the mountains, the stars, the sky, And know in my heart there’s a reason why. See now I know God placed them for me Teaching his power and his love sets us free. I would cherish the flowers, not just walk by Pay closer attention, the clouds in the sky. I’d not listen to others who had such great plans I’d follow my heart and Gods guiding hand. The old man on the park bench that said hello I think now I’d stop, if only to show. That I can return kindness no matter the age I’ll be him with the turn of a page. I’d spend more time with family you see, Instead of providing their wants more then needs. These simple things if we understand We would all enjoy a happier land. Sometimes its good to stop and look back And realize things in life that we lack. But starting over can be only a dream, For alas, there is no time machine. Could it be the answer is something so small? If for some things in life we refuse to fall. Finding that time where we’d like to begin, Means maybe the answer lies within.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
