Don'T Walk Away Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Don'T Walk Away



Don't walk away,
For the days are full of sorrow;
Don't keep them waiting,
Future moments of tomorrow.
This is our world today,
But it won't be forever;
Children come and children go,
Reaching the future together.

So it is and always will be,
Everything just comes and goes;
Summer songs for you and me,
Just for a moment, in green grows.
Yellow tulips and roses red,
Wither, for tomorrow will be here;
Sometime in winter is your garden bed,
Lost in its blooming, in need for care.

Don't walk away,
Though your dreams didn't catch up with you;
Don't give up your hope,
Maybe later dreams will come true.
This is our world today,
Maybe you will change its course;
Though children will never stay,
They'll grow up, and become like us.

Picking wild flowers with my kids is one of those simple pleasures in life, that cannot be replaced. Teaching my children to appreciate and love nature, brings great joy and satisfaction, in knowing that they too will perhaps pass this one in time, to thier children. Great poem! Hugs, Dee
