leaving the comfort . of yesterday’s memories . isn’t optional
on the other side . we hope the destination . was worth the journey
when wondering where . to begin, the only place . is right here, right now
claiming ownership . of things is easy; of time . is more difficult
like a clepsydra . or the flow of ocean tides . liquids still tell time
living for today . the oak tree still manages . to be majestic
sometimes a sunrise . is a glaring reminder . that time is precious
a cat can tell time . but when the clock springs forward . he doesn’t sync up
when the hours slip by . unnoticed, it makes the years . inconsequential
slowly over time nature begins to reclaim that which we have made
