Time ...
The great deception;
The present only
Is ever present.
Comfort lies in the acceptance
That all there ever was or will be
Is the eternal here and now.

Good write, time is a fallacy, all we have is now.
Well said, Goldie. Thanks.
A fine write L. A bit of rubbish now...
Oohh, time elusive
Is it now, not yet, or some time past?
Oh I careth not
As long as there's time for sherry! heehee.
A splendid outlook, 'o'! With enough sherry who cares what time it is, or what time is for that matter.
We probably have no sense of time after a few of 'em!
Time is a continual feast and we each get served our own slice. The pieces are not all the same size however. Thanks for the write.
Good take on time, LG. Thanks for the response.
Nice look at time , Be Here Now was quite the mantra when I was younger
Still a good mantra for us all! Thanks, WL.
Great piece and so well expressed Louis.
Thank you so much. Michael.
Louis, this poem speaks to me, not yesterday, not tomorrow, but right now, and forevermore!
No choice, had to make it a favorite!
I have been grappling with the concept of time, and the more I think of it, the less I understand it. But it is fascinating and one day I will hopefully reach your level!
Let's hope you never sink to my level, Fred! Thanks for the comment, and for making it a fav!
A beautiful message!
Thanks for your comment, pb! Glad you found it so.
Time is as we here on earth see it but really the moment is all we ever need - good read Louis.
The moment is where it's at, indeed, Thanks for the read and comment, Fay.
"here and now"
where we belong.
Deep insight.
Yes, here and now. Thank you for your kind appraisal, m&m!
