Take time

Contributed by Dizza_13 on Tuesday, 6th April 2004 @ 12:37:13 AM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry



The paradox of time is that,
We have taller buildings
But shorter tempers,
Wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints.

We spend more, but have less
We buy more, but enjoy less
We have bigger houses and smaller hearts,
More knowledge, but less sense.

We laugh to little, talk too much
Get too tired, eat too much
Watch T.V too often and read too little
Love too seldom and hate too often.

We make a living, but not a life
We’ve been to the moon,
But not across the street to see a friend
We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait.

We have more computers,
But communicate less and less
We have fancier houses, but broken homes
More conveniences but little time.

We don’t need to multiply our possessions,
But regain our Values.
Wind the clock back,
Spend some time to love.

Say a kind word to those who need it
Give a warm hug to the one next to us
Say “I love you” to your girlfriend
Take time to mend the hurt we cause

Hold hands a cherish the moment,
For some day she may be far away
Give time to love, give time to speak
Time to share our thoughts.

I think a lot of us are guilty of this! a very good write.
