The Secret of Time

THE SECRET OF TIME It’s the curve of the rail It’s the bend in the road It’s the unlifted veil It’s the way yet unstrode That are drawing me on To pursue the concealed On a path whither, yon To what may be revealed Though there’s joy to be felt Friends, locations provide In the known places dwelt Giving warmth deep inside I embrace the unknown On this bare blessed field While the seeds may been sown We await future’s yield As we seek to know all Of what is and shall be Driven on by the call Of deep curiosity In the cycle of life That must come to a close Truth revealed? end of strife? The great questions are posed As our story is told With each passing clock chime Could it be this unfold Is the secret of time?

Einstein is said to have an insight into relativity on a train as it went through a tunnel-- my own experience with a sort of premonition some years ago convinced me that linear time is an illusion--as quantum theory posits--that past, present and future exists as 'one'--I think this is one of your best, Geoff
