The Continuum of Time, Nature, Poetry, and Love

The Continuum of Time, Nature, 
Poetry, and Love

Just as the ocean’s continuous motion,
and sands ever shifting in time;
constant the clicking of clock’s endless ticking;
this poet’s perpetual rhyme.

Sure as the morning with sunrise adorning,
and crocus that blooms in the spring;
days softly humming with nature’s forthcoming,
this mirth makes the mockingbird sing.

Dreams keep amassing as time keeps on passing,
these reveries seen in my mind.
With seasons contrasting this beauty is lasting
that nature forever designed.

Sure as this portraiture beauty of nature
in springtime when life starts anew;
like nature’s endeavor and lasting forever,
this love in my heart felt for you.
