Once in Life

A Poem by Harriet A Shea
"

We become wise about living. Becoming complete in our time.

"

Once in Life



Once in a lifetime you see, you find, 
you live truly for the inner you, the 
true self that controls your thoughts, 
Your mind your heart.

Once in a lifetime you search, you 
understand what makes you come 
alive, you feel the music in your heart, 
once in a lifetime your brightness 
shines through, a light of understanding.

Once in your lifetime, you seek wisdom, 
you feel the inner strength, the power of 
the depth you may not feel again, just once 
in your life, you find the true meaning of 
self-worth, collecting together everything
you have been wanting to for years.

Once in a lifetime, your thoughts become 
complete with each heartbeat, no hesitation, 
all shadows of fear disappear, bringing 
peace flowing through at last.

Once in a lifetime, each smile becomes 
a mark, attracting those unsure of life's 
treasure, each role, each page turn, 
while they become a memory of wisdom.

Capture what you feel, what you see, 
take hold of each measured step, their 
will only be one time before it's time 
to go home, so be aware of everything
you were never aware of.

Keep counting your blessings for all you have
and pray for world peace, we could be living
unharmed, happy, if our thoughts turned
to God for help, strength, and faith to know
hope is blooming in front of us at all times
if you noticed and listened to our unheard 
thoughts.

No words have to be written, for you to learn what
life is about, it should be living in your own
heart, soul, to make peace with all men and know
once in our lifetime we could have admiration
and respect to the World God made for us to live
in peace and happiness.
