ETERNITY

Eternity is easier to comprehend

Here.

The figure represents a Life.

*

The footprints are human,

Man-sized,

Understandable.

We know where we have been.

*

They are 

Our Photographs,

Our diaries,

Our treasured letters,

Our memories.

*

The way ahead

Stretches on,

But for how long?

*

Is that a brick wall way ahead

Or is the Fairy Story actually possible?

Whichever is true

We are walking towards 

The Great Change.

*

And, just to remind us,

The Endless Ocean is on our left;

The Universe,

The Stars,

The Riddles,

The Enormity.

*

If we were swept up into it

No-one would notice!

Certainly not the Universe itself!

*

And, to our right,

Just beyond the ridge,

Lies Everyday Life,

Filled with houses,

TV shows,

Family problems,

Hustle and bustle.

*

Step up and over

And forget about Eternity.

*

You will continue on your walk

Regardless.
