Time Enough For You Lawrence Peters
waiting
for a hundred years
slow fires burning
mountains climb and soar
deserts bloom and whither
thinking
seconds become hours
seeds become flowers
mountains fall and crumble
rivers flow and merge
I waited
nations came and went
money made and spent
babies grow and love
stars fall across the sky
beauty
rushes through my life
I reach to touch a minute
an hour a century
think of you
and all you meant to me
time
echoes all around
deserts become mountains that fall
to the ground
babies become men
and the cycle moves again
I know you now
as I knew you then
mountains fall
to rise again
destruction
of a dream well taken
my heart was fooled
I was mistaken
waiting
for another hundred years
still powerful
through my heart's tears
won't get fooled
as I was fooled then
mountains fall
to rise again
