A Time
linked-image

A Time for sadness
A Time for fun
A Time for bathing in the sun

A Time for joy
A Time for pain
A Time for sheltering from the rain

A Time for night
A Time for day
A time for listening to what others say

A Time to walk
A Time to run
A Time to enjoy the victories you've won

A Time to toil
A Time to rest
A Time to share in laughter & jest

A Time to believe
A Time to doubt
A Time to raise your voice & shout

A Time to act
A Time to think
A Time to pull back from the brink

A Time for silence
A Time for song
A Time for deciding what's right from wrong

A Time for love
A Time for hate
A Time to mould & shape your fate

A Time for peace
A Time for war
A Time to seek safety behind a locked door

A Time to live
A Time to die
A Time to shed a tear & cry

A Time for waking
A Time for sleep
A Time to be wary of secrets to keep

A Time for tenderness
A Time for strength
A Time to examine yourself at length

A Time for forgiveness
A Time to be spartan
A Time to consider what makes us human

Nice poem and in the vain of the song Turn, Turn, Turn by the Byrds which was in turn inspirited by Ecclesiastes 3. Really like the final thought of your poem for everything above it us what makes us human.

Thanks Clovis, glad you could relate. thumbsup.gif

Definitely I am sure anyone who cannot relate is simply not human. The best poems can only be understood by one or they can be understood by all. There is no middle ground. This poem is great. The only thing I would add is my own personal belief that sometimes there is a time to dance in the rain weeeee
