As I Blink

I blink

A child’s born

Another blink

He stands

The next

He walks

Each moment

Gently changes

The world

They grow up so fast

​My phone buzzes

A beautiful woman

Who I remember

In diapers

I feel joy

At the blessing

Of my simple

Witness

I sometimes wonder 

If we should roll our clocks back

Into sundials
