The Now

 

The Now is with us in perpetuity.

Neither yesterday nor tomorrow,

the Now we carry with us each

day, every step of the way.

Now, the untrimmed toenail,

music to the ear, dust on the

book shelf. Now is full, Now

is completely empty. The Now,

there is always something or

nothing to do.

You are or never were who

you happen to be right Now.

Now is the time to leave or

stay for awhile. Now takes

place at a furious or slow

motion pace. Now is rife

for a change.

It is Now, a time for enlight-

enment, a time for peace to

be achieved. Now is for a fresh

start and to initiate and

facilitate the end.

Now, a one of a kind opportu-

nity. Now there is a summons

to action, my friends. Give and

take, build, brake or replace.

Nothing comes before or after,

nothing is like the present right

Now. It could be said, Now is

a new beginning and a forever

and ever without end, Amen.
