Time
by Kenneth JP Drysdale

The paradoxical power of time,
     constant forward motion.
Never to cease,
     always evolving,
     deteriorating,
     flourishing
          everything at once.

Ignoring time,
     only expedites it.
As repetitive ticks continue,
     we can stop,
     must stop
          to appreciate
          life, love and people.
Grandness surpassed 
     by time alone.
