Wondering

One day you wake up and all you seem to have accomplished is to wallow in your dreams. Where did the time go?

There comes a time in every life

When we wonder what the hell were we thinking

To let oportunity pass us by

It was gone before we finished blinking

 

Then we're standing there on our own

Thinking of all those days that've passed

Care free nights have come and gone

We could never make them last

 

And we stand there wondering

What would have happen if

We weren't chained to our ponderings

Of our so called gifts

 

Everything we've ever dreamed

Has stood once in our grasp

But fear's a gruesome thing

Keeping our hands clasped

 

So we face that time in life

And wonder what the hell were we thinking

As another oportunity passes by

Gone before we finished blinking

 

Ond once again we're left wondering

What would happen if

But we're still chained to our ponderings

Of our so called gifts

Beautiful poem. I was attracted to the name because one of my own favorite poems is about wondering. Great Job, and keep writing.

So we face that time in life

And wonder what the hell were we thinking

Gone before we finished blinking

It is so true 'Time waits for no man" it certainly is all too fleeting~

THanks for sharing this well penned piece~Fran Marie
