Summer

You have passed

Beyond the boundaries

Of good hope

And good measure

A time of morning

Sun

And beach

Swells

Beyond the walls

Where pupils

Sit

Dilated

With distain

Beyond the

Strain

Of schedules

Of moments

Of knowing

A time of unknown

When paths cross

To tempt

Fate

Stepping to free

And light

Convictions

Hold true

In summer time

When tranquility

Builds trust

In the unknown

When fear

Subsides by the sea

When destinations

And arrivals

Are not timed

Nor expected

But knowing

The unknown

As it is

The now

The present

Once future

Time

When clarity

Eases focus

And purpose

Arises

Soon to be

Past

And distant

Part of the

Known

When all

Is known

Leaving

Time to step

Again to the

Unknown

The now
