There Is No Time Without Time
I'm glad September has to come and that I have no choice in it.
I might choose only August, if I could..
And then have only a season and not a year.
I might, but Fall will come and I'll be glad to have it bring back time..
So I can see this August end..
And know that every day has night, and every night a day.
Each life, but Life itself, must end.
I need to know my own mortality.
Without it neither time nor I have worth,
Nor the need to try~
Nor the will to try.
I could not live only in Summer's Great Deception, as I could not live in Spring alone.
I need to know of time and feel its passing motion on my face in some September wind..
And know that life has time and time is life..
And I, like days and seasons, am passing, being and yet to be.
Amen.
