Sieze the Moment

Each moment creeps
Slowly
And quietly upon you

Drifting in continuum
One by one
In unbroken chain

From within the infinite
Depths
Of circular time

And across
The velvet black of space
And existence

Until at long last
It presents itself before you

The soul whom
For which it was destine made

And then
As if a drop in
The ocean’s great expanse

Makes impact and
Forever thenceforth becomes…
A part of you
