Eye to eye with eternity...
All the Time
when You were
and I wasn’t.
Folding of mountains
to makings of oceans;
happenings You partook in
and I inherited.
Birth of life forms,
extinction of species;
processes You hosted
and I became a part of.
Evolution in progress
until the arrival of man;
history You witnessed
and I be the proof of.
Sideling Hill in
a syncline in rock
some million years old;
a road cut that reveals
antiquity and tribulations
a saga often untold.
My goodness you have written so many wonderful posts since I've been gone.
ReplyDeleteI hardly knew where to start. Had to skim through some quickly, but can't wait to get back to them.
By the way I'm fine thank you for asking. Hope to be back very soon.
oh dear ID, this is wonderful, i love your words of reverence to our beautiful planet, only a few, like you with a big heart, recognize what we owe to this beautiful planet: that's life!

ReplyDeletethis time it is told by you... so beautifully...

ReplyDeletebye bye
Aha! Your poem accentuates the importance of the eternity and the philosophical finality it exudes. It's not just a concept, it's the truth for the ephemeral like us to realise. Something to chant, "Men may come and men may go/But I go on for ever".
ReplyDeleteThanks, Id.
