Whisper of Time

We are nothing, but a whisper of time,
Prose, poem, chapter, or rhyme.
Nothing, but the thoughts in my head.
Happy, creative, sad, exciting or dread.
The tale continues, the journey no end,
We’ll meet again, foe, family, or friend.

In a whisper of time, love that I choose,
Is all in my mind, to win, draw, or lose.
The beat of a heart, makes us all whole,
But a generous spirit, is a gift to the soul.
Sun is energy, rain makes gardens grow, 
It takes sun and rain, to make a rainbow.

Fear, in a moment, can stop a heart.
Can bring us together, or tear you apart.
Moments you take, rewards you will reap,
A step at a time, you’ll bound and leap.
Fear not the future, regret not the past,
But live, in the present, and make it last.

Find your real love, create your fine art,
Develop your mind, it’ll all play a part.
The Creator is there, to cushion your fall,
Once more arise, stand strong and tall.
You are a rainbow, A whisper of time,
Prose, poem, story, or rhyme.
