Sunlight and Shadows


Time

Time moves like the rising tide

Slow but unstoppable force

Time spreads like the ocean wide

Subtly ever changing course

Time creeps like a stalking cat

Sneaking up when no one sees

Time frays like an old straw hat

Losing pieces to the breeze

Time comes like a doorbell’s ring

Paths converging now and here

Time goes like a northern spring

Slips away until next year

Time always marked and measured

Synchronizing rhythm, rhyme

Time can’t touch moments treasured

Experiences not bound by time
