Favorite Quote:
“The poet's job is to put into words those feelings we all have that are so deep, so important, and yet so difficult to name, to tell the truth in such a beautiful way, that people cannot live without it.”
― JaneKenyon


Take time and enjoy life
Take time to see the birds and bees
Don't forget the world around you
While you're focused on your dreams

Take time and look around
Take time and appreciate the small child
You know you will only be here
For a little while

Take time to greet
The smiling faces
Don't forget them
When you're off to better places

Take time to feel the wind
And smell the rain
If you rush to your destination
What do you really gain

Don't forget the miracles around you
While you're busy following your dreams
In hopes of reaching the moon
People forget the flowers blossoming at their feet
