DANCE WITH ME

DANCE WITH ME

                               Time is glancing at me. I pretend I don’t see him,
                               as if his eyes want to rob my youth and carry it away
                               and drink from the cup —which is mine—
                               It’s my thirst for life!

                               I slowly turn my face
                               just like the sunflower turns his own face towards the light,
                               Now I dare to look into the eyes of time and I see no thief,
                               for, I can see he has the same eyes of life.

                               While I can, I want to run, I want to jump, to roll, and to dare,
                               to swim in the river and walk in the meadows,
                               Not minding the clouds, not seeing the shadows,
                               I shall then honour the life I was given,
                               breathe the air, open my heart and feel it receiving.

                               Tomorrow the storm will lift to give way to my thirsty heart
                               who to time is giving one more glance,
                               And receiving one more chance
                               to drink from the cup of life
                               and invite her for a graceful dance.

Yes, you are so right, I have a thing for time. Have written quite a few about this subject. In my The Old Man and the Book I finished with "time is not his
 enemy when he sees him as old and wise." We are just too scared of it.
And it's only when we embrace life, with all its beauty and tragedy, that we can truly live and stop being so scared of time. Oh, Bernie, its just me with my
thinking and feelings......!.
