Time

Chosen

To

Embrace

Unfathomed

Changes

Ideas

Old eras

Fast fading,

Resurrection

Unexpectedly

Leading us now

To new points of view

Like none yet considered

By all but a few,

We cannot continue

Old dead and broken courses

Look, a new path ahead

Beckons us yet still forward

There is little time left to waste

No reason to stand idle

Staring back at these still shadows

Wondering who it is that will lead

Who has all the simple answers

It’s on you and me to make the grade

Empower the weak, make well the insane

Where are we looking, whom do we seek

Were we not told of “greater things than these”

No one is coming, stop a moment and see

Change is within us, it always has been!
