Breath of Life 

stop in time,
To see the day break over the horizon,
Feel the sunset... and wait for the night to arrive.
 
stop in time,
To see children being born, growing up,
And always smiling happily as time goes by.
 
stop in time,
To feel the cool breeze touching my face,
To look at flocks of birds aimlessly and without destination.
 

stop in time,
To remember a distant past, live in the moment...
And hope for a new dawn.
 
stop in time,
In order to have time,
Of living, loving, smiling and singing in verses...
 
Another day arrives.
