Silent Ponders

Silent ponders provoke,
Concerns of the universe,
Of past, present and future,
That never last forever,
As we toil upon daily stops,
Of petty trivials,
That occuppy our actions,
Unmeasured by cups and teaspoons,
Nor by degrees or minutes,
A time zone that exists,
Uncomprehended by man's mind,
Of ration and reason,
We are lost children,
Unknowing and ignorant,
By painted pictures,
Of watercolours faded,
Swept away only,
By memories made,
Left as remnants,
To you and me.

Deep and profound, very thought provoking and insightful. Time, if only we all would use it more wisely: to love each other, to stop and smell the glorious roses God produced for us, time to make beautiful memories instead of events of sadness and grief. For that, we find time! Might want to change one word: "That occuppy our actions," -occupy. ~~BonnieQ
