What will it take
for our minds no longer to ponder
on wasted moments or sorrowed regrets,
but to treasure moments
birthed with new beginnings
etched freshly as a memory?
What will it take
to love blindly with our hearts;
like a spirit in the wind
not controlled by obstacles,
finding a path to flow freely?
What will it take
for our bodies to know no boundaries,
pushed beyond limitations,
brink with exhaustion
exhilarated by passions?
What will it take
for the inner soul to find solitude,
tranquil peace
and freedom?
What will it take
not to waste one moment,
to live each day to the fullest
cherishing the gift of life?
maybe a brush with death...but then that is only temporary.....or a pure soul an understanding mind a warm (big)heart...but then if your not careful you could end up face down on life's floor.......becareful!!!

It takes an understanding that we cannot change our yesterdays...our past is a learning experience...a springboard for tomorrow
It takes thoughtful consideration to place another's happiness before your own...if you do everything in your power to make someone special happy...they will reciprocate and respond in kind..the cycle keeps feeding upon itself
It takes that freedom to love someone without restraint, unhesitatingly and without reservation...to constantly please them and to be free with your own sensual being to allow the experience of love to continuously grow

Wonderful poem Tracey, with so many thoughts to ponder. We all our on our individual journeys called life. So what it will take for one won't necessarily be what it takes for another.

I think it will take more than most ppl have, there to busy with car payments and mortgages. I know alotof ppl will say that is pesimistic and all other kinds of shit, but it is reality. we are self centered and I dont see anyone giving up big money, big house, big car lifestyle to become enlightened. Most ppl like feeln like shit so they can go pay ppl to listen to them cry about this or that get perscriptions so they can keep eating pills to avoid real emotion, I think your poem should use diffrent language "what will it take for my mind, what willit take for my body" and so on cause everyone else is a lost cause. When u get there and u know what it takes Pen What will it take for YOU
