The afterglow of sunset
Slowly fades away
Resting on the Caloosahatchee
A peaceful ending to a trying day
As I walk along the rivers edge
I wonder what would happen
If we simplified our lives and
gave thanks for what we have
Instead of working so many hours
To benefit others behalf
Maybe if we slowed it down
Took a breath instead of running all around
We would hear peace
Calling on the wind
Begging us to let it in
If we emptied ourselves of needless opinions
Opened our minds to higher vibration
Took time to take time
And enjoy each other
Maybe we would see
We are all sisters and brothers
