Timeless Trust

That timetable of rapt familiarity's discern
resolves transmitting rumors, my befriend
dysfunctions with misfitting, halting's bend
and circumvents a standstill, toward no end!

While opposite in furthering's belief
beginning's placate, anchoring's achieve
that dormancy becomes a truth's bereave ~
life's reconciling justice to perceive!

All told, involuntary atmospheric sieve
the matters decimating plannings blind
are flushed away, as truth's fulfilled contend
perniciously is focused to amend!

That timeless trust, no telltale virtues send
can irritate or spill the hope's distend,
hurt's mortifying gospel's spoken trend
are turned to love, by hope's conspired extend!
