We like to believe that
Time will loosen its reins
and help us embrace laughter and happiness once again
And it does too...
But can the pain that time has cursed upon us be left ignored...
NO...Never
As Time rarely heals

TIME
Spend treasures
Spend time
Buy treasures
Buy time
Find treasures
Find time
Fulfilling moments
For recreations
Of love
And happiness
For life
Living moments
Recreating moments
To live
And become happy
Throughout life
Spending it
But never bought
Time lives
Lifetimes
Time shared
With love
Brings joy
Treasuring moments
Treasuring love
Treasuring life
Is worth
Time spent.

Time

Time after time after time
I keep on giving in silence
picking miracles
from bulb of words
in time bubbles
hoping changes made
improvement
will happen
with time.
You will never grow
with the tides of time
you just whine
and whine
about everything
and Time
and time again
I walk on beside
you, in silent supplication
to known and unknown gods.
Please! In time,
do adapt.

My Time Is Heavy

My time is often mislaid
While yours continues forward
My distracting memories rewind still
Playing over and over in spite

I am always running late
I can’t keep myself up with the minutes
My degrading time will always drag
While yours flies by easily and light

poet Anonymous

TIME

Time crept by during long hot summers

Time tick-tocked by the Bavarian Clock

Time reminded I was not growing fast enough

Little girl you not ready for what you want

Wait, said Mother and Father

Everything will come in time


Time is too slow, time is too fast

Working and commuting make time irrelevant

No time is a form of time

The grown up form of time

The I can fit you in - in six months

Disaster when it comes to sex


The classes started on the hour

Fifty minutes later it was over, at last

Run to my next lecture

Students saunter in

They pay me to teach

The consumer always wins


Winter is a long long time

Spring lasts a week

Summer is lazy time

Fall is falling in...to line


Time means so much

To people waiting to die

Old people know time goes fast

Unrelentingly and this is good

For with pain and suffering

Time will not last

Death is understood

To be the end of time

But often

The bringer of good

poet Anonymous

TIME STANDS STILL

Dark house, dark night, looking out the window

Standing and waiting for hours, for what?

For long time ago....When she was the Queen of all that is here

Her husband a doctor, her three children near

The house with the staircase out of GONE WITH THE WIND

In Thornhill, a good neighborhood,

He has come to pick up the kids for the weekend

As he said he would....she had loved this man for 16 years

Bore his children, kept the house, was a somebody

Not the mouse who cries at the window remembering the time

When life was bigger and she was not broken

Oh to be given a second chance - would anything have changed?

Time Difference

Frigid walls of four
without promise to be free
innocent proved guilty

his time drags on

Months to live is six
without hope of prolonging
mother of three to be taken

her time rushes by

Years to conceive is fifteen
the heartache has finally ended
only nine months to go

her time crawls along

To raise them right by eighteen
the greatest challenge he knows
from diapers to diplomas

his time races ahead

Death came without warning
awaited chances are none
it happened just now

no more time is left

Inner Space  

The continual baffling  
of endless time
the spent is amassing
anti matter from light
the present a passing
in a gone time
we live a yesterday
as tomorrow will die .

We live in a measurement
by our sun
which is irrelavent
past this zone
thoughts produce none particle space
in this nothing we deduce
a something of less weight
we only believe what we can understand
through this we deceive
the movement of man
nothing and something
together they face  
the nothing is more
as it is inner space .

Against All Odds     ( Written in 2010 )    

Memories are clutched
in the hands that point time
flocculent skies did touch
the turning of the dial
love is such
the contrary of denial
barefoot in the dust
we married without an aisle .

Against all odds
and across the waves
we of the same pod
that god
had gave
the path we trod
is how we were saved
together we rock
untethered
to the grave .

Memories are clutched
in the hands that point time
the future holds so much
like unpenned lines
new seconds they crush
the doubts that fly
all mouths will hush
that ever lied
together we'll push
together we'll die
I married my love
with the Indian eyes    
your soul comes flush
with your mind
of surprise
your heart is plush
with a golden
magnetise .

her name is time
I'm in her zone
She's always against me
I wish I could have her

her name is time
I wish she could wait
my neck is on the line
I'm running out of time

her name is time
she's all I have
on my hands

I haven't been alive that long
If pigs could fly
this would be my swinesong
Can we unwind the clocks?
to find the blocks
we lay on time lost

I haven't been dead for long
Stolen moments have lead me on
If time could fly
then where has the autopilot gone?

Puzzle
They all look for answers
yet, in research they are so picky.
How can you learn of Architecture
from one book on just one city?

What if Buddha had it right,
and Jesus did as well?
What if Mohammed
and Confucius meant to
convey and not to sell?

Nostradamus and Cayce-
even Well's ,Poe, and
Aristotle...
Wicca, Mother nature,
Native's know it's lost in all.
Amazing.

What if it's a puzzle-
they all had little key's-
What if even they didn't know-
How to set us free.

I cannot build a stairway
to the infinite divide
unless My eyes are open
and truth is on my side.

The truth in all is Love,
we were created
by an artists brush
Every stroke is different-
the unique in all is us.

We are the poems words
and for ...
the entire book-to be whole
we better join in unison
and decide where to go.

Puzzle pieces everywhere
scattered all through time
everything that is here now
has always been divine.

Will they ever stop the fighting
and alas start realizing
Everyone is right-
and everyone is wrong-
when there's only one note
To the tune of any song.
