Somewhere in the middle
soon there must be found,
a place of understanding
a peaceful common ground.
This life is ever fleeting
soon we all must part,
so just live in the present
each day a brand new start.
Let lessons be remembered
the past left behind,
enjoy each precious moment
and live with peace of mind.
Forgive those who have hurt you
for it matters not,
treat everyone with respect
no matter what they've got.
Always lend a helping hand
to those in distress,
and never judge another
or think of them as less.
Never go to bed angry
at the ones you love,
instead just count your blessings
showered from up above.
Say hello to a stranger
greet them with a smile,
spend time with the elderly
make it worth the while.
Spend more time with your children
say I love you so,
tell them you'll always be there
no matter where they go.
This puts us in the middle
peaceful common ground,
with heightened understanding
mundane becomes profound.
