The Illuminate Faces of Time

The whole wide world is one giant clock a face of illuminate loveliness, the dial is a shadow forever nonchalant, passing through each day invisibly each night, the human race sleeps discerns, tick tock, tick tock, oh the pulse, oh the vibration, oh that spring coil of gravitation, careful not to over wind it, as the celestial key turns, tick tock, tick tock the whole wide world is one giant clock, a face of illuminate loveliness. This wholesome world is a ball of fire, we are the salt of the earth mile after mile we trudge towards existence though nothing can allay the cravings of the soul better than life itself, tick tock, tick tock. Providence takes us by the hand so there is no need to apprehend, catch and release the wind it’s all about push n' pull, tick tock, tick tock the entire world is one giant clock, illuminated by the handles of time. Tick tock, tick tock, don't blow it this time. xo xo Written by: Harry J Horsman & Mystic Rose "A special thanks goes to Vienna for her precious collaboration" See and hear Vienna Bombardieri, read and sing her poetry on 'Youtude'

Harry you and Vienna make an excellent team. Combining both your efforts has yielded this truth. The world is like a clock revolving at perfect synchronicity involving our existence, illuminating through time.

Marvelous, Harry!! I happened to catch your comment on another person's comment when I said the word Plandemic. That was actually the name of a video that was on Youtube and the powers that be have censored it. They removed it and my FB post of it vanished as well.

And now that you have so artfully illuminated me/us on what time is, how it works, and its dominance in the world, I still must ask: WHY does time exist?... Great collaboration, Harry! joy and light, Gershon

It seems Vienna has left the building. Please give her my regards.

With all that is going on, the world has a feel of speeding up and slowing down at the same time. You two write very well together. It has been a while since I have visited Vienna, I must make my way over. Blessings to you both.

Two talented artists made this write even more beautiful, deep, meaningful--I remember the original which was a brilliant piece to begin with--Kudos to you Harry and Vienna for this superb creation.
