Lifetime

The sound of the tractor, and the old shed coming down. Watching the plow as it went around. Theres dew on the wheat, and frost on the ground. Another season is coming, though it makes no sound. Deep in the dark, In the light of the day. Time is here and then slips away. I awake and then close my eyes and suddenly a lifetime has gone by. Shut them again, as it sinks in...Like the chill of the wind. As it blows out the candle..screaming life is sacred..With time you can't gamble. March turns to April and May into June, and August is a reminder, change is coming round soon. And as I reach for September, October went by.. Gasp for a deep breath and long for a sigh. Lost in the flow...I surrender to the tide.
