time lies in a rocking chair to/fro face up into the sky beating heart second hand tick/tocks whiles away the day far-seeing distant night rackets time click . . . click . . . click there is no time now between curved wooden arms while only in our minds measures an empty space between the lines while only in our minds time rocks away IHOPoets, bringing poetic scribes and poetry lovers together from all corners of the globe. |

oh, but such a peaceful way to pass the time! I love rocking chairs...and this poem! A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |

You know peg, it is our perception of time that gives rule over us. It goes either fast or slow depending on how we are feeling. Also another thought of mine, perhaps the time flow stream is totally different the mechancial contraints put on it by man. This came about about because I had my wall-clock lying in the rocking chair for the past few days (don't ask why). Now the rocker was near the computor so I swung it around to prop up a foot...and then I realized I was "rocking" time. . tick . . . tick . . . tick . . . Was a interesting thought  IHOPoets, bringing poetic scribes and poetry lovers together from all corners of the globe. [This message has been edited by wordancer (04-02-2002 03:25 PM).] |
