isn't it something....

Nature
Isn't it something?
Love
Isn't it something?
Frindship
Isn't it something?
Autumn
Isn't it something?
Space,
Isn't it something?
Time
Isn't is something?
Happiness
Isn't is something?
Family
Isn't it something?
Isn't it something to have these things in your life,
Regardless of whether they give you heart ache or strife?
Isn't it something to share with others
The beauty in all around us, even when all we percieve is bad?
Isn't it something to be positive in such a negative world?
Isn't it something, the birth of a child?
Isn't it something, that makes life worth while?
Is it the stars or the sun?
The rain or the snow?
Is it the battle that is won?
Is it because you slayed the foe?
Is it your family in whom you put trust?
Or in your friends who stick by you in the end
Or in that person filled with lust?
Or in letters that cherished ones send?
So what is that something
No one's is the same,
It's about as different as each of our names.
But the somethings we choose have one thing in common,
With out them in our lives,
In the end we will lose.


I was walking to the apartment tonight when i got home from work and I caught a whiff of back home it was a mixture of rain, damp soil, and pine. I remembered a time so long ago when i used to go to camp, and i remember how much fun i had and how much that smell reminded me of home. I rememberd all the people i met and how they influenced me in those so critical years of my life. And as I remember them I wonder if they remember me, and if I touched some of them as they also did me. OH how I long for those days again.
