If only for a moment
I could travel back in time
Chasing dreams of yesteryear
The dreams that once were mine
If only for a moment
To not think about the wrongs
But to dance around in rose buds
Seeking laughter in the songs
If only for a moment
I could peek inside my head
Speak only words of kindness
Take back some things I said
If only for a moment
I could be a little child
Running barefoot in the river
Lie in flowers growing wild
If only for a moment
I could rest in fields of snow
Make snowmen and snow angels
'Til the fire's afterglow
If only for a moment
I could hold the ones I love
Who have traveled that long journey
On the wings of a snow white dove
But I cannot relive days of youth
Or think about the sorrows
I can only live my life today
And hope for more tomorrows.
THINGS TO DO
Catch lightly falling rain on your
tongue
Let snowflakes fall upon your hair
Run through wild flowers with your bare feet
Lie down in snowbanks and make snow angels
Smell the air when it rains and run between the
raindrops
Listen for the giggle of a little child.
