The Sands of Time

Written for The Pic 'n Ink Challenge group

 

Time goes on

Though our clocks may stop

But watch!

The moon still changes house

The sun still rises and sets

 

And seasons come and go

The virgin white of winter’s first snow

Sensuous smiling springs;

Sizzling summer sunshine

The ardent colors autumn brings

Time goes on

And on

Like the seasons

We all come in time

And in time

We all shall go

Like dust

            In the sands of Time

Songs of time, I swear, will enthral me until there is no more . . .

"We all come in time/And in time/We all shall go/Like dust/in the sands of Time" These lines so encapsulate the enigma and mystery of the hands of time . . . how they are perceived and used, though ultimately, they are also victorious.

Bravo!

but you make quite an impression
even on sand
with words that flow and reverberate

This is wonderful. I wrote a poem with the same name, but I think I like yours more.

This is so beautiful and your emotion spills through in your words and
graces the page as well as the eyes of every reader leaving me for one, in a sigh~
