Forever Timeless


A minute to make a moment

the instant to endear

A vow to make a marriage

more committed year to year

 

A ribbon to make a bow

once the tie is fastened right

A hope turned into wishes 

wrapping tidings ever tight

 

A man begets a son

with his legacy passing on

A matriarchal mother

making lullabies of songs

 

All time forever timeless

past—future in default

As fate unlocks eternal

the Muse inside your vault

 

(The New Room: June, 2022)
