The Nature of Time
Time topples mountains,
Time runs dry a stream,
Time destroys a species and
Time destroys your dreams.
Time will wither flowers, and
Time will fell the trees,
Time will pass unchallenged
And bring people to their knees.
But...
If you treat it with compassion
And add a little love,
Time becomes the healing salve
On wings of fallen doves.
Time can bring salvation,
Or send us to our doom;
Where it withered flowers once,
Time causes more to bloom.
Mankind, it seems, is at a cross:
Are we headed towards Heaven or Hell?
Only the Lord above could know,
But only Time will tell.
