Time Passages

What do we gain by adding years to our lives? 

Are we even aware that time 

rushes by like a ghost from the past, soon as we know

life has a

second chance symmetry

till we know God in the end.

That could have been you, there,

there, and there,

all the ones that have have come and gone.

Wells can be filled

with all the salty tears.

Still you’re  a small dot in the time machine and everything spins on and on…

That’s when the words of God

seem to come more often, perhaps even sought out to fill a void.

Hope is a present we all can give while mercy is an act that brings us hope.

Loving kindness can be shared as a common chat.

You’re a God who’s Shekinah spreads over us a white-blue light with all the words inside.
