The Time – small stone

at 8:09
I notice that
11 minutes seems like
a great deal of
time.

multiplied
many times by
all these rushing people
and squared again by the
sick ones,
biding and
abiding.

Then,
slowed,
by the
lounging dogs.

  1. I get the sense (and have felt it myself) that sometimes a slowness of time is excruciating and at other times, restful. Your stones are very meaningful to me. Thank You.

    1. Thank you. Sometimes I have ALL day to get something done, and I can’t seem to fit it into my day. Then sometimes I grab a few minutes and seem to get a pile of things done in that time. Odd, isn’t it?
