Time Has Endless Patience
Time has endless Patience
There from the start
There too, 'twill be, at the end
when all else departs
Time's a humbler of Empires
Outlasts them all
Watches monuments crumble
no matter how solid
no matter how tall
The glory that was Greece
The grandeur that was Rome
In Time's rear-view mirror now
Majesty become soil's loam
Time is dispassionate
It goes its own way --
Yet it's ours to utilize for the good
~ every moment, every day
