Ocean of Time

Alas, Man eternally swims into the ocean of time condemned never its shores to reach!

The only way to stay out of the ocean of time is not to be born dear, Eve. Once born you have to swim. Enjoy the swim as Richard suggests! If you had read the other Mononoku you would have to entire picture! Thank you my friend!

I guess it's best to enjoy the swim.

Not a warning my friend, just a sad reality of life.. some sit on the shore and just watch the waves go by... Think I have gone off on a tangent lol

In my poem there are no shores to be reached! No eschatology!

Ah my friend, if I ready you correctly, I interpret that as mortals, individually, our doom to stay in the constraints of time as we know it...Maria xx

My dearest, Maria, as mortals in the middle of the ocean of time, without any shores in sight, doesn't make much difference how you... interpret it! Thank you my friend for your lovely visit!

Excellent! Perhaps it has no shores!

Delighted to see you my friend, White Wolf, visiting and commenting! Perhaps you are right! We cannot think time as having shores or as not having shores!Haha! Thank you!

We don't reach them as man, but as the spirit we do! We don't get restricted like we are now, we'll be free! Your write here is even better than the one before this one! You keep improving upon yourself my friend...that is very good! I hope that I improve in my poetry ever poem I write, but I know sometimes I fall backwards with some of them. Oh well, you learn. But this poem doesn't need any help. It is perfect the way it is! Awesome Work!!

What you say about the spiritual Man is true my dear friend, Russell but you have noticed that I refer to Man! Thank you so very much for your precious comments. We, as poets, should always strife to improve ourselves and our writing! God bless you!
