Two days old, as hours foretold, Wisdom is a gift, heartily gifted so. Life’s greatest mysteries left to unfold, Hourglass sand drowns the catacomb. Time perceived through linear scopes Shows present truths and fallacies as heard. Elope distinctions, divorce similarities, For the world is backward and time, reverse. Lessons learned, reiterate the word, Responsibility, the key to community. Prosper, live long, Disease is only deadly when extinct is the immunity. Freely versed, lyrically rehearsed, Speaking from the heart blends emotion at the worst With flint and tinder Striking up fire, but always a spark first.
