At Any Given Time

Everything be in its place
     at any moment in time;
Each and every crumbled leaf,
     every thought that comes to mind.

Neither here nor there is lost
     to the solitary view;
Nothing shifts under the tides
     or in winds that now blow through.

Though life and death co-exist
     somehow they are pulled apart,
While echoes from distant songs
     quell the beatings of a heart.

Blink once and it is moved on
     to a silence not yet heard;
Dwelling, then, eternally
     in accordance to His word.
