The Time Of Action

Sometimes time meanders slowly
O'er the stones and weeds of our lives;
And then slips bright through narrow gullies
A laughing stream of joy and light.

Though time flows through and round your life,
The woes of love, the burning strife,
The dreams you've had will still come true;
You shape the life that comes to you.

Pictures flash of life's true purpose,
When you take quiet time to dream.
And dreams turned fast to bold intention,
Are the fruits of all your being.

Be the love you dream of having,
Give the gifts you long to get.
Live this precious moment laughing
Tears of joy, you won't forget.

But most important be yourself,
For you are Love and Love is true.
Love judges not, when others change,
And does not change if others do.

The time of action is upon you,
The shaper of the diamond's face.
And all you are or ever will be,
Lies there waiting for your grace.
