hand me some time please

hours tick by and transcend
into nothing or eternity
maybe both in line with each other
body mind spirit hold the key
the lock may be rusty
and yet corrosion fails to arrest
what has to be and can be loved

vagaries obstacles dreams aspirations
blessings miracles uncertainty
courage and serenity seek for wisdom

faith without action is dead
action without faith barely alive
karma casts a warm shadow
for the light to emerge

opposites are not contradictions
instead they complement
compliment each other
with humility and vital force

the past is the past
future may not happen
and while it is difficult to accept
the here and now is all I have
which is a lot and
I am grateful with abundant passion
