A Life in Progress: Meeting the Warden of Time

in #poetry7 years ago

Inside every one of us is one true authentic swing - Will Smith

What follows is merely a short contemplation of time constantly urging us to arise to our own truth before the sands run out and the fire fades away.

...

Drift hither, Drift thither
Before the roots they wither
Before the green turns yellow
And the burn fades into mellow
Wherefore the seed beareth no fruit
Run clear cross the meadow
Or delve into the heart of the shadow
Settle but into the soul of dispute
Warden, won't you let me out to play?
Spent I the day in ill repute
Setteth the sun upon my dismay
Let me in dusk have my say
Clear forth the way
For the bars melt not upon my clutch
Nay, not evermore...

...

Thanks for reading! I hope you find your rhythm to this crazy tune called life. Be blessed.
