TIME to be BORN ~ TIME to DIE
Time to Plant ~ Time to Pluck
Time to Heal ~ Time to Wound
Time to Build ~ Time to Demolish
Time to Mourn ~ Time to Dance
Time to Embrace ~ Time to Shun
Time to Keep ~ Time to Discard
Time to Rend ~ Time to Mend
Time to Speak ~ Time for Silence
Time to Love ~ Time to Hate
TIME for WAR ~ TIME for PEACE
Thanks for visiting ~ comments please ~ Love BRIAN XOX
There is a Season for everything and a Time for
everything on Earth and in Heaven. We should
not question the timing but rejoice in and reflect
on the TIME we have had TOGETHER. I've been
to several Funerals this Year (Ages 101 ~ 85 ~
42 ~ 30 ~ 18) but when I have given the eulogy
I have stressed that each was A COMPLETE LIFE
A Time to Live and a Time to Die. So let us Live
our Lives to the FULL and endeavour to leave
Precious Memories that our Loved Ones might
Rejoice for the Life that Was ~ and not Mourn
for the Life that Might have been ~ AMEN
The poem is based on ECCLESIASTES chapter 3.

A fine write Brian. Big ben don't look like this now. it's all being refurbished. Saw it in person a couple of weeks ago.
Oh - a time to sing; unfortunately it's me singing, but that can't be helped! How they look forward to 'a time not to sing!' lol.

Oohh, comfort me in me swoons
Through golden days of sun and nights of silvery moons
Cos there's no remedy, it's just too 'hot'
(Not just the weather. lol)
From all these swoony poems, such a lot!
And a time to reply on MPS - half time during the Belgium England game.
FULL TIME BELGIUM 2 ENGLAND NIL ~ No bronze medal for the ENGLAND YOUTH TEAM ~ BUT put it into perspective ~ The relative success of ENGLAND YOUTH ! 32 Teams started out and at the end of the E v B Game against all odds ENGLAND ~ due to good Team Spirit and a Excellent Manager & Captain ~ they came FOURTH ~ awesome ! If that sounds awesome consider the BIGGER PICTURE ! There are about 200 different COUNTRIES in the World and everyone has a FOOTY TEAM and each of those TEAMS wanted to win the CUPPA DEL MUNDO in Moscow on Sunday. Those 200 by Fair means or Foul were whittled down to 31 and as host ~ RUSSIA played the JOKER ! So in effect out of 200 Teams ~ eligible to play in RUSSIA ~ The England Youth came FOURTH ~ AMEN ! They should get invited to BUCK HOUSE for tea with TRUMP ~ sorry for tea with the QUEEN and all given OBE's ~ OBVIOUSLY BEST ENGLAND ! Thanks for your comment ~ BRIAN ~ Still proud to be ENGLISH !
This is a wonderful poem and message! Loved it!
Thanks SISTER ~ Pleased you loved the POEM and its underlying MESSAGE ~ Carpe Diem ~ make every day count Muchos Abrazos Tus Hermanos ANGELA y BRIAN @@@@@@@
muchos abrazos de tu hermana tambien---Christina
