A
Bell
Is only a bell still,
'Til you make it ring
A song will want for expression,
So you give it voice to sing
A day, but a passing of time
So, you live its full array
And love is only a reason,
It's only nature's way
And love is only worth having,
When you can give it all away
A candle
is only a candle,
'Til you give it flame
A pen will never be sword-like,
Until you write your name
A loved one will never have known it,
Unless you show you care
And a smile a thousand times brighter,
With loving friends to share
And friends will only be friends when,
You need them they'll be there.
A road
is only a road 'til, you follow it where it goes
A seed is only potential, until you let
it grow
A river just passage of water, 'til you
take a drink
And words are in search of a poem, in time
consigned to ink
And poems are inspirations,
That give
Us
Time
...
To think.
