time is all the moments ticking, clicking whirling the rhythm and the beat infinite endless the pulse of life in each breath taken in each heartbeat in the pulse of my soul and spirit always so, I will p r a y for sweet tranquility in each moment left to me for a life of serenity and peace if I can be a warrior brave and strong I can conquer all for inside me there is a fire and I know I can climb mountains if I have to ugly words wash over me like a waterfall I will only listen to the throb of this life to the end until I repose in quietus

just lovely words, Constance. I especially liked: for sweet tranquility in each moment left to me..for a life of serenity and peace...I long for that tranquility as well as letting ugly words was over me. Soft yet powerful words, dear Constance. Delightful read...have a splendid evening, Sara
