A Time To Talk

When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don't stand still and look around
On all the hills I haven't hoed,
And shout from where I am, What is it?
No, not as there is a time to talk.
I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground,
Blade-end up and five feet tall,
And plod: I go up to the stone wall
For a friendly visit.

If only more folks would slow down and take the time to visit. Today, everyone is in a rush. Love our "A Time To Talk".

Yes, my new years resolve - to continually remember that people are far more important then things. Making the effort to communicate - that is what builds relationships.
