TIME
By Anthony Edwards
It only takes a second
Just a moment of your day
To hold the door for someone
As they hurry on their way
It only takes a minute
To show someone you care
Or to really make a difference
When no hope was there
It only takes a single day
In the raising of our youth
To speak to them of choices
As they search for their own truth
It only takes a year
To really get it right
But oft we choose our partners
After just one fleeting night
It really takes a lifetime
If the truth be known
To love all without measure
If true love is to be shown
For each and every second
Belongs not to just a few
But to every soul you pass
And every soul who passes you
