Time Passages

Listen to poem:
"Time is the thief you cannot banish." Phyllis McGinley, Writer, 1905 - 1978 Time Passages I drift midst some pleasant sensation~~from a morning mist, that promptly parches within glowing ribbons~~where I sail lightly, plucked anon afloat~~as my ramblings proceed aimlessly, Presently skims a peacock sky~~fans out its righteous hue, variously, ducks stapled in a pond~~quacks influences life, views by ark's parts a motion~~equal to my emotions, Channeling alterations that affect~~evolved futures, preceptions are produced clearer~~like a hallway complete of doors, whenever one is opened~~ventures varied responses, I noted from moment to moment~~evoked fused answers, harmonious so far~~whilst I perpetuate forward in thoughts, mindful about yesterday's storm~~all in all, time will tell. 2020 November 13 *3rd Place* Writing Challenge - Quote Inspired ~~Constance La France
