Yalto
Invented by Edward Ibeh: line 1 to 15:  3,4,2,4,5,3,2,3,2,3,3,5,6,1,5, no rhyme required. 

Time

Time is not
     a ticking clock,
          it has
            no past, present,
                    or distinct future;
                         each moment
                              woven

forever
     in the
          fabric of
               creation
                   is eternal and
                         as infinite as space
                              yet,

recognizable.
