My life's sands


Flow


Through time's hour glass~


As I watch.



There is sedentary finality


Settled to the bottom


But it is the soul of me


That watches


Undisturbed.



Knowing


That time never was


So has no end~


Nor final resting place.


While I, the epitome of me,


Will endure~


Perhaps flourish


Sands time


And therefore destiny.


Here is only now


And there


In everywhere


Forever.


And so I will slow down~


Take it as it comes.


I will ever answer roll call.



If I do little here~


And perhaps I shall


Do much there.


Tomorrow will ever come


I will be~As I am there.



March 24, 1983

I have no idea why the editior is not working properly and the poems are in gray. Anyone who can help me with this, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
