Tour of Duty

Mending holes in time Healing rifts in space Moving always moving Place to threatened place Disasters averted Mostly Mistakes can prove So very costly Here an entity slips through And is only just caught Its unplanned birth Could have brought to naught Eons of planning In that great scheme Carefully monitored From the Halls of Dreams The Great Whales are moving Singing as they glide Through the Whole Cosmos In their endless ride Effortlessly waltzing To the music of the spheres Their eternal duets So beautiful to hear Concentration lapses So very easy to make In a nano second A Catastrophic mistake But the Watchers are watched Gently eased back to plan Observing observing observing Through a duty span Mending holes in time Healing rifts in space Moving always moving Place to threatened place
