Kit Kelen #1224 - when we were immortal

1224

when we were immortal

for Pamela Griffiths

time for everything
best things take time

in all the pockets of the day
with gifts of love, imagination  
see into the picture and past

faces of friends pop up   
expected, sometimes for surprise   
there’s always the miracle of here-I-am
and how-did-I-get-here?

quite the empire we are
how vanishing this time

that Spring beginning could be anywhere   
meaningless -- money, the pile to-do   

the well is conversation --
this great scheme
we are together   

yearn to be blank and possible
know such a morning comes   
it is sung out of treetops
caught falling

time for it all when we were immortal
time for everything
best things take time

we’ll know when we get there  
and meanwhile
it’s lovely to be on the way
