Poem -
~ ON THE WINGS OF TIME ~
O, but to breathe the breath
Of the ineffable nature of time
On breezes that sing of wings worldwide
Born to soar on the nature of life
This perfect measurement for rhyme
O, but to breathe the breath
Of the angelic spirit of stratosphere
Upon a linear continuum of constants
Propelling the self through atmosphere
This ideal gift for removing fear
O, but to enjoy this life
With the palate of a taster of wine
Drink in the universe from an alien stream
Holding 'Love of God' above all inside
While floating gracefully upon the wings of time
'Tis this, I find
This magic, in life
I'll cling to it fast
This, most perfect glide....
Tony Taylor

This is just great, Tony! I was trying to decide which verse I like best, but I love the entire poem. It's perfect in rhythm and pace. The structure and wording is right on. This is really one of my favorite structural poetic verse in writing. 5 stars and like, brother poet!!
