Drifting Uncaring To Time, In Time
Ah, no dreaming this...
I drift uncaring to Time
In time’s given me.
___*___
How could one as I... be so free from moments
When such moments of splendor hold me
Me, in awe of further... what could well be
If I, since truly free, just wished it to be.
Perhaps though just in wishing it
To just 'be'... in me, I am already free.
___*___
Yes, Time presses it’s greasy hold
Not knowing I can smell it’s intents
While I laughing, keep breaking it’s mold
By dreaming where it holds so few, little ‘I meants’.
Saddled with no reasons needed
Just fluttering around
Intent's like butterflies
Waiting for flower petal’s thoughts, to invite… ah, found.
___*___
Yes, in just moving around
I take in sweet smells, thus
Tasting pollens, their seeds
At random to my own delightfulness...
As my true age holds nothing now new
Fear boundaries having been, and being broken
As true spirit knows now the truths it has found
In finding Time’s chains permanently not broken, woken.
___*___
See me now...
Be I at new birth, or just passing on, or along.
Outside warns…
Deign to tarry, thus staying too long
Beware, as no bell chimes...
No tides bringing in, flow out.
No, I easily move on, just skipping about...
With the I in me’s chaffing, a... tiny bit
Being little interested in the places I sit, for long
Knowing past, present, and future
Are just like softest dimples in sand
Waiting, for sterner breezes of Spirit
To choose where next... each lands.
___*___
Laughing and burrowing deep to find cause
Making new effects changed, for the thrill of it all...
Then scurrying away singing, through seasons like fall
When leaves take their passing, until spring again calls.
Oh jump ahead quickly, why wait within Time
Take Self to next spring without hardly trying
Riding with fresh saps once again, to spring out leaves early
Curiosity’s mattering more then, remembering where one’s been.
___*___
Yes, I drift uncaring to time
An uplifted Man in Time.
Thus do I advance
To life living’s very edge
Where moments of splendor hold me gently
Satisfying my own curiosity and need
Yet, daring I to cross free singing
Join me...
Beyond Understanding’s... welcoming bridge.
