A Cage To Hold My Dreams
The Eye Of A Rose
The time went so quickly I should have been watching
then I might have noticed the colours of Spring
but I was too busy coming and going,
too busy to notice...anything
Yes, I've had my moments of being successful
Executive washrooms, avoiding the sack
Why didn't I notice the daffodils waving ?
Why didn't I pause and wave back ?
The dramas, the aggro, how little they mattered,
the job disappeared when the company closed.
It was then I discovered the beauty of sunset
and the smile on the face of a rose.
