 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

SO MUCH LIKE CATTLE


a few cattle going through the largest crop of grain
Doing just what cattle will if they can do~
In both sunshine or and in rain
They just keep walken right on through~
Passing most its true of worth
Taking only what they feel they need~
Wasting most there on the earth
Not knowing much good grain from the weed~
Humans they should learn from this
As we mostly often do the same in life~
In such a hurry to live our lives
And choosing mostly what brings us strife~
If we all could only slow it right down
And living each n every magic moment grand~
And not in such an almighty hurry
To waste so of what we have on hand~
Every single magic moment
Given to us is ours alone~
All we all have to do is stop to think
And make each magic moment our hearts home~
We can all go back in memory
And see so much weve missed~
Because we are all in such a hurry
So many magic moments never kissed~
Theres way more for us all to ever learn
In the past than in all time to come~
If we all only went back a year or two
And learn from all that has been done~
This very earth is suffering
Because weve all got progress upon our mind~
But theres way more progress by far ever
In what weve left behind~
We can all go back in memory
And take good note of what weve missed~
And fashion more of it within our lives
The total waste of magic moments all still unkissed~
