7 MINUTES
We all have 7 minutes before something we must do,
The same time before work is done and time to go home.
7 minutes waiting or 7 minutes up, what be the circumstances,
7 minutes in the shower, 7 minutes on the phone,
7 minutes before dinner, another 7 minutes all alone.
Time is of the essence, time never stands very still,
7 minutes late just may save your life, right on time, goodbye.
In only 7 minutes, from good to bad, your world has changed,
Snooze for an extra 7 minutes, it may do you a world of good,
7 minutes a long time to suffer, 7 minutes to love and dream.

Thanks for sharing Keith. I wrote down a theme for a poem long ago, and it was centered around “five more minutes.” I never write the poem, but the idea is in my writing files. God’s peace!
Time to write it. Thanks for reading.
