Just One Minute

 

I wish there were enough hours

in my busy day,

to feel the wind brush my face,

as it too hurries on its own way.

 

I only need one minute,

to pause, be quiet and still,

then I could hear the whispering pine trees

that cover the rugged hills.

 

If I had just five minutes

I’d stop as autumn rains wash my face,

and yellow leaves would dance at my feet

making my world an enchanting place.

 

I wish I could halt the hands of the clock

or stop the ending of the day,

and just look into my children’s eyes

instead of rushing into the next busy day.
