I get some helpfull suggestions, the reader thinking I am lamenting on my own problem. This poem was a commission on the theme of 'Time' so I included the irony that most people make excuses instead of JUST DOING IT!


If only



If I had time
I'd learn to dream.
I'd learn to fly,
to see,
to create.

I'd learn to live for today.
Not for what tomorrow might bring.

I'd learn to live my dreams.

Oh! how much I would learn.

If only I had time.

Zoya Zaidi
TIME IS NOT SOMETHING TO BE HAD,
It is never offered to you on a platterr;
Time is to be taken out,
From your busy schedule...
Or life will pass you by,
And you'll never fulfill your dreams...

**Welcome hugs to Pb**
Love, xxx, Zoya
