Along the Way

As you wake up each morning,

and go through life each day,

You’ll face many challenges,

try not to go astray,

while searching for your destiny,

all along the way,

Along the way be sure to take the time to smell the roses

Along the way be sure to use your fingers and your “toes’s.”

What do I mean? Well, fingers can

extend a helping hand;

And “toes’s” can enable you

to walk through the land.

Along the way take notice

of the joys life has to give.

Enjoy it to the fullest,

learn what it means to live.

Along the way you’ll find someone

who truly is in need.

Extend your fingers out to them,

and help them with their deed.

If one should fall, just help him up,

and you will quickly find,

how “toes’s” and the strength you need,

and give you peace of mind.

We only pass this way but once;

it too soon comes to pass.

Along the way just breathe each

breath as if it were your last.

Explore the world, see all you can,

be all that you can be;

For no one knows how long it is

’till we “Abide with Thee.”

Believe!
