Love Poem: Stop And

Stop And

Stop and smell the flowers as you walk along the way.
Let their fantastic fragrance remind you about the joys of play.
Stop and drink the coffee savoring every sip.
While remembering fondly of your favorite vacation trip.

Stop and plant a tree, help Mother Nature out.
Giving back where you can will decrease the times you pout.
Stop and do the things that mean the most to you.
Driving back negativity and the times when you feel blue.

Stop and help a stranger that others turn away.
It may not be their fault that they have went astray.
Stop and listen to the elderly - give them your warmest smile.
Enjoy their stories and wisdom - if only for awhile.

Stop and pet the animals - give them lots of love and care.
Let them work their way into your heart - their loyalty to declare.
Stop and hug your family - tell them you love them too.
Fond memories you are making - so make more than just a few.

Addendum: If we don't stop and experience the true treasures of the World - we really are missing the Bigger Picture!
