Time
The butterfly counts not months but moments,
and has time enough.
~
Time is a wealth of change,
but the clock in its parody makes it mere change and no wealth.
~
Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time
like dew on the tip of a leaf.
Love adorns itself;
it seeks to prove inward joy by outward beauty.
~
Love does not claim possession,
but gives freedom.
~
Love is an endless mystery,
for it has nothing else to explain it.
~
Love's gift cannot be given,
it waits to be accepted
Life is given to us,
we earn it by giving it.
~
Let the dead have the immortality of fame,
but the living the immortality of love.
~
Life's errors cry for the merciful beauty
that can modulate their isolation into a
harmony with the whole.
~
Life, like a child, laughs,
shaking its rattle of death as it runs.
