Pendulum



100_4799

Pendulum


Quiet movement
Back and forth
Graceful pace-
Underneath
Clock's face...
Sitting
On the mantle
Above the
fireplace.

Left to right
Right to left
Swinging away
behind the
glass case
To the moments
of this day-
As the gift
of tomorrow
Has not yet
arrived.


Pendulum
Sways only
To the moments
Of now-
So, live wisely
Find your joy
In this amazing life
Trust God's will
Before blessed time
Without announcement
Becomes...
still.

Psalm 90:12
So teach us to number our days, that we may
apply our hearts unto wisdom.
