The Presence of Time

The Presence of Time By Josie Parrelli Where the clocks are beating The journey starts Time Life is a sense of timing Who we meet, who we see What we do Each step we take Guides us upon our path Confused, we question The clock keeps beating With no rhythm or rhyme That’s where the confusion has started We fear the clock beating As if it’s a mocking call Eyeing your every move seeing your falls Be still in the moment, the clocks are not your foe They are beating In your rhythm Your time For the clock beats differently for all of us Our steps, our journey The presence of time is your friend Listen to it, hear the beats Dance For when the time hits You realise that the clock was always beating In your time, your tune Sing For the presence of time is never to be feared Never to be questioned; never to be argued with Listen to it, hear the beats Hear the melody, sing the song Strum the beats For within the melody is where your destiny lies Believe and trust For the presence of time Is a gift, unique to us This is Your Life Purpose For here is where your story is told (c)2013

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
