Mind, Body and Spirit

Passing of Time

Time gets to run away

Even gold cannot make it stay

Like precious seeds in a forest of trees

There are moments that hold the keys

 

We strive, seek and beg, for glimpses

Hoping our eyes see before time lapses

Time isn’t revered until there’s much to lose

It won’t extend its stay, it’s suffered abuse

 

Time pauses when we’re home

On the condition that we remain alone

And thrifty with time, to transcend

The mind, let is stay, a lifelong friend

 

To know the value of time is godly

When we spend freely to comfort the needy

Every moment becomes a wave of grace

And awareness resets time to a glacial pace
