I saw you this morning as you
hurried on by-
Never stopping to wave,
or just say "Hi".
You never saw the flowers
God sent your way-
You hardly ever have a
kind word to say.
I saw you this evening as you
made your way home-
A frown still on your face,
another day gone!
If I could search inside your
heart what would I see-
A sad, quiet man - one
who's lonely?
What I would give to be
in your shoes-
To have all those precious
minutes you never use.
What I would give to enjoy
one more day-
To just be able to kneel down
and pray.
Don't waste the minutes, the
seconds, the hours-
Take a little time to stop and
smell the flowers.
The minutes of our lives
are slipping away-
Before we know it we have
lost another day.
What I would give to simply
reach out my hand-
In Love and Peace to all my
fellowman.
Cherish every minute - Its all
yours alone-
You can't retrieve it once it
is gone!
I sit on my porch and the
world I can see-
Sitting back in the shadows..
My wheelchair and me!
