Time is your friend

Time is your friend, not foe

Don’t believe the caged-in souls

Who quiver, burrow, barely sleep; never still enough to see—

That light is streaming, shining, bending; Along the arc of space unending.

Catch the rays and ride the waves;

Let them take you where they may

Dance along the plane where sky and ocean greet

Surrender to the song where loss and longing meet

And once there find, that should you trust the here and now; and then and there; will all one day fold—

Into a world immersed in what was seen and heard; and felt and shared; from days of old

A safe place; dangerous enough to venture out from once again

And discover time is still your friend
