Time

What is time? Does time exist? Sometimes fundamental questions can not be agreed on by scientific minds or presented for understanding by the common man or woman.  And sometimes the poet can offer another perspective.

How many breaths,

    How many heart beats,

Have passed us by?

   That word ‘time’ seems as good as any

To describe that passing of
   The heartbeat of the the now arriving;

The breath of the moment

   Grasped, treasured, relished:

And, in passing, remembered.
