Temptress of Time

As a consequence of a daydream
(Once again I could not slumber !) 
the muse has swept in took my hand
has an idea ! A tricksters plan …


Pondering the stars
as you wander in
Dream pushing and
prodding all 
my whims
but your visage 
took reason
threw me on the ground 
made me wake 
look all around


“You rock with the hand of ages
Roll on the will of the gods”
your form 
isn’t of our realm
but is a fold of never
an open page of maybe
all around me
a reach away
I swear
feeling you
I am


Oblivious
to the
deeper meaning 
for you 
passing days
have no form
as my heart leaps
we be coupled 
infinity beckons
a bustling room
to the love 
and luster
that is you


Making me shiver
the wanton disregard
depraved indifference
a thrust of tomorrow
the end of a beginning
temptress of time
flitting in 
and flying away
never far to stray


Never still long 
trouble wont find her
no earthly thing
could ever bind her
eternity paid
her forever wing
she is the song
cherubs sing


My enemy
and friend in one mold
a companion freely
Time has me in her hold …

I love the energy of the write, and the imagery that is carried in the flow
