Time Like A River.

Goldfinch60



As you sit by a river

The water flows passed,

You touch the water as it passed

But you will not touch that piece of water,

Not touch it again

As it has move on

And will not pas again.

Time is like that,

Every moment is unique.

So enjoy every moment,

Enjoy every moment of your life

As those moments will not come,

Will not come again.

            Beautiful music and a 'timeless" poem. A great analogy explaining why we must live in the moment. Loved it. Phil A,
