Dear Time by Lucia Semenoff
Alexandra Writers Centre Society
it is early morning
distant moon pale
star-dots
jewels in the sky
have I told you lately
how tired I am
dear time
running forward
running to catch up
running around
my daily circle
circle of life
meanwhile your steady flow
shadow and light
endless loop passing
one infinity to the next
I wonder
dear time
how your clock never stops
