Time

****
You would measure time the measureless and the immeasurable.
You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons.
Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.
Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness.
And knows that yesterday ist but to-day's memory and to-morrow is to-day's dream.
And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within de bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space.


Khalil Gibran - The Prophet
