Time Contraction
I remember the sheer elation,
just like it was yesterday
Forty years tears of joy removed ...
Thirty months, same feeling safely deposited
Twenty weeks marked a memory pulse acceleration
Ten days of jubilation thoughts from bald to grey,
felt like five hourglass Palm turns
on a dawn, Easter Sunday
Zero minute ticks in the mind,
completes the heart contraction of time ...
I celebrate not a wasted second
