I suspended time,
so I could clearly see,
with the knowledge of now,
how I needed to be.
It made me realize,
I could have been,
a better son,
or even a better man.
I squandered time,
selfishly for me.
Not giving to those,
who really needed me.
Every day is abundant,
in chance and of time.
Allowing you to grow,
into a person who is refined.
We all buy possessions,
taking them to our hearts.
Acquiring random gratification,
which sadly will never last.
Life is but a journey,
we all play this game.
Building strong relationships,
must ultimately be the aim.
Learn the lesson quick,
as time is a priceless gift.
Make sure to never look back,
ever a day to feel miffed.
Begin with the aim,
to enjoy in every way.
Remember it’s people that count,
at the end of the day.
