Essence of time

 I found this poem in the box of yester year (1984) at the time I was thrice blessed, poorer than poor and I was happier than happy for I had and have beautiful earth angels loaned to me.

 

The essence of time ⓒ by Donna R. Riley Lands

 

All in the time of the day

Moment by moment, it passes away

To and fro

And always on the go

Then in a flash, a twinkling of a star

Time has happened

Precious forever

But maybe never

Starting here and ending there

Essence of time

 

Beginning of eternity

Unique in quality

A whisper in the silent winds

Rushing waves of the ocean

Time happens with the motion

Alpha or Omega

Beginning or end

Essence of time

 

 

A day to the month

Month to the year

Closer and closer

Faster and faster

Near to near

Farther and farther

Younger to older

Warmer to colder

Essence of Time

 

Darkness to light

Somewhere or nowhere

When to begin

When to end

Season to season

Wrong, right or reason

Year to year, near to near

Nothing to fear

Essence of time

 

 

Moment by moment, it passes away

To and fro

And always on the go

Then in a flash, a twinkling of a star

Time has happened

Precious forever

But maybe never

Starting here and ending there

Essence of time my friend
