Best Time Will Tell Poems

I only tell of sunny hours...

We are not so different
you and I,
though your stone face
can never last.

In time
how much more telling,
are the shadows
that we cast.

TIME WILL TELL

A modest planet and quietly progressing
Troubling no other and fealty confessing
 Surviving well enough and paying its dues;
 Quiet corner of the galaxy. No foreseen surprise to bemuse

The ruling committee were in contented mood
 Agreements reached and cautious plans reviewed
 Coffee served. The...

Are you one who has danced with the Devil by chance or by choice
Are you quick to obey all the orders of each masters voice
Repeating the lives of our fathers while blinded by faith
Expectant of love and forgiveness forlLifes mistakes we make

We live in a...

Must I uphold my Prime Directive, 
Conjecture of pressure- 
The correct Direction? 
And would my Mind pass inspection; 
Is my Fate my own Objective? 
Catharsis of Change is introspective- 
Highly reflective- a brain detective! 
For Change I must as Darwin said- 
Do what's Right, not...

Glowing
That’s what everyone tells me I am doing
I am simply glowing
A reason?
Yes
That would be you
I am simply floating on air
My feet no longer touch this mundane earth
I am so light hearted
I have fallen for you 
And you have caught me 
Lifting me so high
Giving me...

I AWOKE TO A NEW DAY,
AND NOW I SEE THINGS MORE CLEARLY.
WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY,
FOR IF YOU COULD LISTEN TO MY HEART YOU COULD HEAR ME!

IF MY HEARTS SONG WOULD SING TO YOU, 
IT WOULD SERENADE YOUR EMOTIONAL DESIRE.
FORGIVE ME FOR THE THINGS IVE...

Since I met you I have not been myself,
Hoping to get to know you in myriad times,
Going through clouds and ocean,
Waves and landscapes;
Wanting to see you,
But time will tell,
All I have been through,
Have been washed away by your presence,
If ever I see again,
I will not...

When it boils down to the truth taking a platform
the words Jesus speaks deeply to me

Most assuredly I say to you before Abrabham was I am
there is no one before Him or after Him

In my books He is Alpha and Omega
clearly from this statement our...

Why did our fathers’ fence fell
And the fortunes of our motherland thrown into the well?
-Like a veteran midwife with the history of abortions
 We have failed to hatch the golden eggs of our pride and passions.

Why did our laws turn flaws
And charlatans made our charters...

My soul I will never sell
Even if I got to go through hell
Time will tell
If I'll excel
And propel
Doing poorly or swell
Wherever I dwell
Crooked or parallel from any citadel
And hotel
Are you the lion, cheetah or gazelle?

Can't afford to lack
Got to stay on track
At the drop of...

Only Time Will Tell
by M. Griswold
05122020

Only time will tell if we're meant for each other.
Or if this love we feel belongs to yet another.
We must take it slow and easy not to upset
this time table of love with no ill regrets.

Our hopes and dreams we've...

Loving you was a love of forbidden boundaries...

A haze by which I could not leave
Your spirit spoke to me
And I could not look away

No thought could suit me more than running away with you
No money, job or obstacles could keep me from you

To hold your...

~Time Will Tell~
Time passes us by today
Life is short and yet we pray
For much more  time
No time left no time to play
No time - not even to pray
Theft is a crime
The thief of time who can slay?
He steals our lives we are prey
Not much...
