Aa Long as...

 

As long as tomorrow follows today…


As long as the tree sways in the wind…


As long as page 257 follows 256…


As long as the next breath is taken…


As long as one step comes after the other...


and snowflakes fall…


and short is less than tall..


as the bat hits the ball...


As long as a new dawn breaks…


As long as the second rung is above the first…


As long as a correction follows the error…


As long as time is kept accurately…


and the secret is kept discreet…


and socks cover the feet…


and the weeping willow weeps...


As long as the last line eventually follows...


I’ll finish with this…


somewhere beyond the beginning


the end will follow.
