There is only the ever present 

There is only the ever present

I take notice I am aware

I observe what is important

That of which I care

The softness of her lips

the scent of her hair

the touch of her skin

are you going to Scarborough fair?

when you awaken from your sleep

you can again start a new day

Do you pay attention?

Or do you daydream your time away?

At what age do we realize?

the precious currency of time?

what value did you place?

one would hope it was more than just a dime

We can only experience a memory of the past

In the ever present now

So too, is the future

Any premonition can only be thought of in the present – but how?

Perspective is a filter of the mind

choose wisely, pay attention, and be kind

Procure your visual memories carefully

if someday you lose your vision

You will only have your visual memories when you are blind
