HAVE YOU PASSED THIS WAY BEFORE?

As you walk the path to the lake
With corn, the Canadian geese to take;
Do you take time to see the flowers
Which blossom through your days and hours?

Take time to smell the scent
Of buds along the way you went,
For all the blossoms you see today
May dry tomorrow and blow away!

Once they're gone, they ne'r shall return;
Gone with the wind, they say,
To the land of endless day,
Therefore, pay heed as you walk today!

Have you passed this way before?
Do you plan to walk some more?
Then raise your eyes from off the floor
To see things of beauty held in store!
