6 April



once i stuck my fingers

in the waterfalls of time

 I can never forget the way the droplets of water

looked in that light

suspended in the air like tiny diamonds

time is not a barrier

time is not a single unit

it zips back and forth

forming  pleats

i feel your power shining 

in the pockets of light

and because i am not tough

i travel there

and find you in the details

time

  3. I like the idea of finding time in the details, especially when the details are diamond-like droplets.

  4. Yes, time definitely is not a single unit, but zips back and forth....and also doesn't always pass at the same pace. I love 'the waterfalls of time.'

  5. Love your poem. Especially the lines:

    once i stuck my fingers

    in the waterfalls of time

    I can never forget the way the droplets of water

    looked in that light

    I hope you have a great weekend!

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you
