Seconds to centuries, By the time time ends there would be no more~

in thirty seconds,
some seventeen thousands dead,
thousands men injured,
and half a million homeless
unlimited God power!!
Years in the making
seconds in the breaking.
A “Love” In testing times
or time for testing love?
© Harry J Horsman 1993
How can so much power,
Be contained in so small a thing;
Turning seconds into an hour,
Causing bells to ring…
Counting silver seconds
Loosing teal time
Onyx owl beckons
Clock call is a chime
Karma at it’s prime
Saint or sinner shines
Up your seconds
stretch every moment
Joy in the instant
— present sublime
(Harry’s Café: Rush Street, Chicago – Circa 1982)
Seconds
form every day
swiftly or slowly pass
as a droplet of water drips
in time
Traditional Cinquain
In the space between two seconds
a fugacious presence is revealed,
having escaped from the eternal
often comes to prove me wrong.
obvious flapping
struggling for a few seconds
flowing with wind now
following a cloud
astonished forest watches
eagle disappear
words die in my palm
as my eyelids caress them...
frozen seconds mourn...
my soul is drawing answers
out of broken mirrors shards...
A man who was hung by his balls
Declined to accept any calls
A priest said we'll find
He changes his mind
A few seconds after he falls
reminds everyone
the covenant of Yahweh
for a few seconds

indeed, the excellent poets do it in seconds
very good do it in minutes; good do it in hours
however, weak poets do it in days or even weeks
A minute made
in 60 seconds
it's not a drink
you pour from
outer package

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2023
Why is the sky
Where is where
When do the seconds go
Who turns to how
What is my answer to everything
and please is a question unanswered
shreds of crying clouds
trickle along budding trees,
like shadows of dreams...
words melt away in silence,
as seconds flow with the rain...
Sixty seconds is all it takes,
Syntax the recipe and the brain bakes,
Cook up a poem, select Poetry mode,
Put pen to paper and churn out an ode.
Final fortune overcomes
ironic endings always wrought
never lasting in our findings
individuals eternally untaught
seconds left till our despair
As the seconds, minutes and hours tic away;
the Month of March,
marches away
As the times do so they change
the Month of March,
marches away
I love nature
Just a simple walk
Inside forest
Listen the whisper
Of the trees
Stay there for 15 seconds
Breath deeply
And you will feel relax.
A few seconds more
Youth will set you ablaze with
Fiery beauty store.
Staring at the red
Why defer you the mirth till
Gray burnt is the bed?
Two seconds left
Field goal will win game
Will he kick it twixt posts?

Seconds moved on
Minutes moved on
Hours moved on
Pain moved
Days moved on
Months moved on
Heal moved on
Year moved on
Why thee didn't move on?
my death is so slow!...
its footsteps mark my seconds,
its breath veils my heart...
behold, with its frozen eyes
has touched the words between us...
A few seconds of eternity
two more than you’ll need
One moment of profundity
fog gone—vision freed
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2013)
