Once Upon a Needy Time

Once upon a needed time
As I question the dark and the light
I open myself to life’s uncertainty
And clear my thoughts away
And in my meditative mind
I allow the cosmos to sway
And embrace the silence it brings
With the whisper of darker things

As I contemplate the shadows
I climb the mountain of time
To see what waits before me
I look past the vast emptiness
Beyond the edge of my soul
Past the forest of all knowing
Towards the end of all being
Where the heavens swallow the earth
And infinity lies calling for me

And hidden in that infinite place
Where time and memories end
I find again what God wants of me
A future awash with the hope of life
With the Lord’s calling open to all
As my needed time is filled with light
