Life-Clock
We dream, we choose, we search between
to seek a key that can’t be seen.
But while we shift and re-align
we run with risk before our time.
Not a race and not a game
both fast and slow arrives the same.
A temporal shift to what holds true
our life-clock cogs conceal a clue.
For everyone there are the times
when fate and chance aligns, combines.
The skill in knowing when to stay
to move towards or walk away.
The will as one to heed the call
trust our instincts first of all.
The key to keep our Life-Clock chiming
lies within
its in ‘The Timing’.

Indeed! The timing! When you're in the right place at the right time! I love the rhyming and the rhythm. LCD, January 21, 2022

Yes, spot-on…. but sometimes opportunity knocks quietly and windows for action can be very narrow….. it all comes down to our choices at that moment in time……
Moments in Time
A count of time, big moments past
enshrined in life, forever last.
Within each one inbuilt the key
to just that possibility.
A count of ways, of all as known
of stroke, of love, of broken bone.
A blink of eye the future changed
now, tomorrow, re-arranged.
A count of all we hold within
as moments permeate our skin.
For tho we think we understand
fate leans in and shakes our hand.
A count of nights, of joy-filled dreams
nothing really as it seems.
Dawn renews what could be done
advancing moments, one-by-one.
The moment now, of what might be.
Could dreams become reality?
Thru chance or choice we hold the key
to every possibility.
