My dad battles cancer and tonight he is my inspiration. I told you I would write a poem about time tonight dad. I love you!

 Time

 
Has time ran away,
am I just a fool,
can yesterday change
every trial I've been through?
 
I reach for perfection
struggle for peace,
hoping I've accomplished
what's expected of me.
 
Time we can't rush
though often we do,
our darkest moments
we journey right through.
 
With hope that tomorrow
might possibly bring,
what life lacks today
changing everything.
 
Time exists yet waits
for no one,
live for the moment
when tomorrow is done.
 
May regrets never alter your
soul today,
and the grace of God
lead your way.
 
Time is a treasure
a gift from above,
don't wish it away
nor speed up it's
love.
 
Dance and rejoice
give thanks it's ok
no matter what time 
may bring your way.
 
When life is over all said
and done,
the time you were given
over and gone.
 
Rest your eyes
sleep peaceful tonight,
no matter what
obstacles waltz through
your life.
 
Time is not promised
like lightening 
it fades,
with the blink of an eye
it goes away.

Life is unlimited and forever. Time is just how we view it right now. Bob

"When life is over all said and done
the time you were given over and done." Really well said! A nice poem, Kathy!

Time and life are intertwined. At times like you describe, time either stands still for speeds by, depending upon the circumstances.

I'm not as eloquent, or as biblical informed, but I know what I know, and that is we are here. We live our lives. We waste our time, or we use it to our advantage or to help other people. When at last we lay down to rest, hopefully we can look back and smile because we have done our absolute best.

A great poem for your dad, with lots to think about. As I read your poem I thought of the two ways time is viewed in the Bible: chronos, which refers to the passage of time, and kairos, which refers to th value time carries. We are given just so much chronos, and its our job to make as much kairos asmyou can out of it.

God bless,

Chip Bergeron
