Ticking Clock
image source: wallpaper-s.org
It it by the clock
that we set our day
And it’s by the minute
that our lives tick away
There is no stopping it
before the one final click
Of our whole life’s time
off of it does tick
There are time-clocks for work
and a stop-watch for races
That measure all the time
we spend in certain places
But there is only one
that I am concerned about
And what it will mean
when that time runs out
When there is in heaven
the grandest of all clocks
That is the soul’s ticks
and the eternal spirit’s tocks
So it is that there
while my time it measures
I pray what God see me
as one of His many pleasures!

Much Longer – Monday’s Hay(na)ku
Ever
have one
of those days?
When
all our
strength it displays?

Hide – Monday’s Limerick
We’re playing hide and seek
he said he wouldn’t peek
I don’t think that he
will ever find me
but I gotta take a leak!!

Blinded

Blinded in the world we live
to all that is unseen
Restlessly we take and give
while here in the between
Greedily do we go along
hoarding all that we glean
Leaving behind bread crumb trails
of everywhere we’ve been
As we all stagger through
our mundane life and day
The best we can hope for
is to better it some way
But if all that’s done
does our own self betray
How does any of that
the meaning of life convey?
We are all put here
to accomplish a specific purpose
To make the world more
not leave it something less
When it is another soul
in this life we bless
Then no one can say
we didn’t share some happiness!
