NO NOW  


16 NO 'NOW' 

There is no `now' in thought
for even while we think upon it
has passed away.
As yesterday, to-day was
but a dream.
So will to-morrow's memory
be to-day.
We cannot halt this rhythm 
which we share
with sun and moon, and wind 
and ceaseless tides.
Yet even as we breath
the flowing air,
a whisper comes . . .
We are not bound by time.
