Pauline Raina - Is this you

We rush here, and we rush there!
chasing a dream, daring a dare!
This world's got us caught up, running around,
chasing a fantasy, keeping us bound.

Bound up in shackles, of life's luxuries,
making us slaves of things so temporary!
When do we stop to realize,
that life's more than this,
and all we have to do, is look inside!

And begin to work on the things that count,
A loving heart, a warm embrace,
and a smile that goes around.

So where do we start and with who?
I'd say the time is NOW
and the person is YOU!

Pauline Raina
