Unless Time Tells

 by Dale Copeland on Friday, December 31, 2010 at 9:33pm

Living, not knowing what the future holds

It creeps nearer after every winter cold

...It never ends 

Unlike life it lives and exist until eternity instead

Yes my dear the world is finite,

But time is immortal 

For the will of God it lives on

It thrives and engulfs its days

Feeling the bliss of every minute

While mankind rushes most times

Notwithstanding time's gaze

Time's rage is worst of all

It terrifies the terrified

It dazzles even the already dazed

Dare not I beg thee my friends 

Attempt to sneak from its gaze

Our days are numbered 

And age dances with days 

As the days dances with rain 

For who knows when our love ones' eyelids pours down rain

Forming if not a storm, a flood

Only time tells all the tale

Ravage in the calm

Smile as the sun shines

Smile now for all to see 

Yes...for all to catch the contagious smile

That will later be cured by the storm that will soon arrive

Sad is this tale I tell

But time mutters it well

So enjoy your days in 2011

For, no one knows...unless time tells.
