Time To Analyze

Ting,

       Ting,

              Ting,

 

The chimes of time

Give us clear signs

As the year unwinds

 

Time to straighten our lifelines

Step back and open our

Eyes to the colorful sights

 

Decide where to realign

Life is ours to design

Take several sessions to analyze

 

Many blessings to realize

There’s time to make life just right

Why limit yourself or compartmentalize

 

It might be time to downsize

To get the most out of life

Now is the perfect time to analyze

 

Author's Note

It's getting to be the final days of the year. What a perfect time for reflection.

a great poem of reflection..especially at the year end..when a new year brings new hope

[Dream Weaver]

A wonderful reflection indeed...out
with the old and in with the new...

[Goodbye]

Well you know I'm in complete agreement here, Dahling!

So very well written, so positive, and headed to the favs!

[JanieB]

Excellent.

[Twilight]

Quite a positive piece of writing, perhaps? It reminds readers not to restrict their outlook or options ("compartmentalize" in the second to last verse). Also, it was encouraging to be reminded that it is never too late, to make a fresh start in life or simply take time to reflect? Although simply written (and concise), it does speak to the reader in a positive way! Thankyou Marie, for sharing this piece with us!

I wonder why we wait till the end of the year to think along these lines?

[Linear]

Lots of ZZZZzzz in this reflective poem, looking back in order to see any changes needed for whats ahead, but who can read that reflection in the mirror, using a critical eye? Not I. Great poem

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

I really believe in reflection and emotional budgeting.
Your poem here is a tutorial on how to begin to be one with spirit.
I loved it.

[Fabian G. Franklin]

I try not to overanalyze things anymore...when I once believed that life had meaning...I searched for it. Now I believe more and more that time and chance happen to all and the gods must be crazy... I just try to roll with the flow one day at a time and survive. I'm all for looking forward keeping in mind what I've learned from the past...after all...as Thomas Wolfe said, "You can never go home again"

[Jibey]

A pleasing minder in it reflective thoughts...
