Time's End

As time defies thought of betterment and wishes
We struggle, as an uphill battle ensues for cause
Standing face to face with time, it certainly wins
But, the battle won’s no indication of the war itself
As heart remains, as will is strong, as goodness exists
We will remain triumphant in the war on time
For what missions go unfulfilled, we pass the baton
To the next generation of soldiers of right and light

hi Michael, time stands still for no one, that's why we each have to teach or children the right way to go, and the right things to do, great introspective write, and thanks for your welcome comments, take care D-nyce

Yes, but I believe that time is but a word made for the purpose of working and having to be somewhere, at a specific when...time is all now...there is no tomorrow or yesterday, it is all just now. So, in that respect, yes, our children will one day take over and on and on it goes...a beautiful poem, Michael, you get better each day. :) Love Kristin
