The Web Poetry Corner - Richard Betts Jr. - Time

Time

by

Richard Betts Jr.

How many ticks does He permit?
How many beats does one heart hold?

How many spring showers will I see?
How many days will God grant to me?

How many times will I kiss your lovely face?
Or feel the warmth of your tender embrace?

How much time is one man allowed?
Before he must wear his own little shroud?

How many autumn rains will I taste?
How much more time will I waste?

How long will it take for me,
To become the man that I long to be?
