This road my life is traveling on
Has many twists and turns;
Some days are smooth, some easy
Some with hard lessons learned.
I'm careful with my footsteps
Keeping steady on my feet;
Often stopping a long my way
For people that I meet.
There are many times I've stumbled,
And I had to slow it down;
Always looking up ahead,
For it's impossible to turn around.
I've learned to measure minutes,
Not by the breaths I take each day;
Instead I count the moments
That take my breath away.
Those times full of amazement,
When we're caught up by surprise;
Sometimes with a sweet hello,
At times by sad goodbyes.
Sometimes they're full of laughter,
At others full of tears;
That rush of sweet excitement,
Mingled with a touch of fear.
They become our precious memories,
Of a time, a place, a day;
When something deeply touched our heart,
and took it's breath away...
