Daily Reading - One of Allen James' poems - The Last Tear Has Fallen - It's Time for a Change

Happy Friday....I hope your attitude about your day and the approach you take to living your day is as FRESH as the day is itself....there has been no other "today", there will be no other "today"...the way it plays out before you is totally up to you...yes..TOTALLY up to you....

Our reading for April 12th comes from my "stash" of poems from the past 30 years and expresses what a life changing force WE are.....knowing we and only we have the power to take from our lives whatever we may; to add to our lives whatever we choose; to make of our lives anything we desire. Some of what were the most difficult times of my life brought about what became the most rewarding changes morphing me into a more aware and more defined individual.

The Last Tear Has Fallen - It's Time for a Change

This ending proclaims, "It's time for a change";
No ones left wondering whose to blame.
Sitting alone with a solemn face;
The last tear has fallen in this lonely place.

This ending proclaims, "It's times for a change";
No more taking prescriptions to ease the pain.
No one knows what's yet to be;
The last tear has fallen, only I hold the key.

This ending proclaims, "It's time for a change";
I look back at photos I hold up to the flame.
I sit on the floor and pick up the pace;
The last tear has fallen as I embrace my fate.

This ending proclaims, "It's time for a change";
No matter you left at the start of our life.
Seasons come and seasons go;
The last tear has fallen, I take it in strife.

This ending proclaims, "It's time for a change";
Echos of voices to not be replaced.
Seasons come and seasons go;
The last tear has fallen as I leave this place.

Allen James March 15th, 1990

Keep looking up, and embrace the day....whatever it brings you way. : ) AJ
