A New Nursery Rhyme
Tick, tock, distant star
How I wonder when you are
Just a timepiece in the sky
Your every 'now' another lie!
[Following on from the last poem and the 'time' theme]

Miracles
Around me, the unseen miracle
Of the past: the birds in the tree—the hills—the clouds—the people passing by,
I am at the centre of my time
And they are all in the past
What stranger miracles are there?
After Walt Whitman, Miracles
