Ticking off time as the life turns like wine

The age is known and the time runs steady

A constant race as a try to replace the lost time

No second chances this clock has no rewind

But overtime you begin to ponder

Is the ticking so bad?

Why must it be sad?

Goodness comes everyday

Yet the constant stress of the sand falling

The constant ticking of time

Do you look out into the world with fear

In hopes that maybe life will stop

Or reappear

But no the ticking goes on

A constant encore as the clock circles around

Finding yourself getting lost in the sound

One thought leads to a flurry of sound

Baby steps no longer found

As your new ones take step

A constant prep as you begin your day

Worries not quite gone never passed away

But maybe if you would let go

Let him, let God know

Then maybe it won’t be so bad

No longer sad as you rejoice in the day

Worries as still there sure

But no longer a constant array

So I’ll pray everyday

Thank him for the day

Because time is ticking

The cake continues to rise

As the life inside you flourishes

Like a flower you bloom but with God

You are life a leaf in the wind

You bend at the gust of wind

Sure you are swayed but also calm

Led down and around getting lost in the sound

Whispers that get you through the day

A Heavenly Father who’s there every step of the way
