Meditation While Waiting For People

Time falls to the wayside,
The definition of momentous: the single
moment that becomes forever, stretching
but never breaking, promising perfect days.

Dreams slip free of gaps, living
In the gaps between those moments,
Straining for what lies beyond
A perfect world and the death of time.

The understanding of infinity is
Terrible awe and the stars that go
On forever, and die, and are seen
Past death, until the ending of days.
       How can we think so small, in
       a universe dripping with endless
       possibilities?
                                                        Even death
Must seem a small, shallow thing,
For what is born or what can die?
Life continues, the universe is Life,
Our embodiment of ourselves,
Cosmic principles and waking dreams.
