Life At a Glance

Looking back when my children were young, time did not last and glances were all that the clock stood still for.... Lost Moments--- Don't close your eyes, Your glance will be gone. With a memory so short, it hardly got born. With life at a glance, being wrapped up in time, Held by the thoughts and measured by rhyme. With music in the air and laughter floating free, love surrounding faces to catch a glance with me. The landmark should balance for life at a glance. Fill it with worthy choices, Never get another chance.

It's not a mans tears that makes him a coward but it is what makes him cry that really measures a man. How moveable is his heart and how unmovable is it when the cause is wrong. Let him cry if it is right to. It was right to cry when I read your poem because I understood it.

True, You are no coward for sure. From the heart, the mouth speaks, so why shouldn't tears flow also when they well-up. Since the woman was made from the man's rib, it doesn't mean she took All his tears too for herself.. Thank you for your wise comment Lyward!
