The present
eternal
though time
would belie
The moment
what’s precious
enduring
all lies
Before
and then after
the future
and past
The instant
upon us
the first
— and the last

Lovely my friend and a fave. There is no time but the present and it is with us always.
Amen, and thank you.
My pleasure my friend
Insightful and thought provoking. Lovely, well written. A fave of mine
Blessings~Katie
Thanks again, Katie.
Kurt, the phrase “the present eternal” caught my attention right away. That tension between eternity and the fleeting moment gives the whole poem its philosophical pulse. It invites the reader to pause and consider how time actually moves through us. Thoughtful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you, again.
Most welcome, my friend. My pleasure!
