Once two lovers climbed a hill <br />and looking down below <br />were saddened with the thought <br />that soon they'd have to go <br />Back to all the busy-ness <br />and bustle of never enough time <br />to leave it to the hurry up world <br />with never a hill to climb. <br /> <br />For practicality got the better of them <br />and they forgot about the hill. <br />They busied themselves on every day <br />and finally lost the will <br />to step off the merry-go-round they were on <br />and find enough time for love. <br />And never again did they climb the hill <br />or look down from above.<br /><br />Edwina Reizer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/too-busy-for-love/
