OF THE SEA OF LIFE AND THE SANDS OF TIME

CATEGORY

As the sun continues to set and rise,

 As the moon continues to wane and wax,

Here I am, continuing like a roaring wave

On the wrinkling sea of life, streaming to

Its shores, to froth and seep deep into the

Waiting sands of time—here to canvassing

Clanging conch-like echoing footprints;

 

As the sun continues to seat and rise, as

The waters of the sea of life continue

To evaporate to freshly freely fall again,

I continue to fall asleep and rise again

In the circadian rhythms of time’s clocking

Of the ebb and flow of the mission purpose:

The spreading of divine wisdom, peace, and love:-

 

Once thought deserts of oasis have had their day

And are now known valleys of the shadows of death;

Yet, I now know that where love is, fear cannot ever be.

Both parallel and vertical, I have footprinted them free.

And though I’ve had to sail that sea, I did it in the Paul way

I am now on and in the sands of time breathing sweet breath.

 

As the sun continues to set and rise,

As the moon continues to wane and wax,

Here I am—continuing like a roaring wave.

My tired eyes are resting upon the skies

As I stand here wised and vertically relax

That I’ve lived here free and not as a slave

Clanging conch-like echoing footprints:

 

Saved by Him of Whom there can be, no pretense!

Thanks, jojo. I am both honored and humbled by your feedback. When I was working with SNCC, I ( "TEX" Lowe) was once blessed to drive Dr. King, McKissick, Stokely (Kwame Toure) across Arkansas, where I was primarily stationed.
