Spring Showers
When we listen
To gentle spring showers
We get lost in the rhythm
For hours and hours
Giving ourselves
The rest that we need
Life doesn’t have to move
At blinding speed
It’s OK
To take a break
Find peace inside
For goodness sake
This world forces us
To go, go, go
We never get the chance
To get lost in the flow
Allowing our minds
To wander in bed
We race through life
Like the living dead
Trying so hard
To be something we’re not
Know that this life
Is all that you’ve got
So take the time
To appreciate yourself
By going within
You discover your wealth
Allowing you
To release the past
As the world whirls around you
Going nowhere fast
We are so accustomed
To doing what we’re told
To live our lives in misery
As we begin to grow old
When will we learn
To change our ways
Get lost in the magic
And step out of the haze
This life that you have
Is a beautiful gift
You need to take the time
And let your perspective shift
So that you can follow
The voice inside
Listen to your heart
Let it be your guide
