Oh Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Oh darling time
you know you give and take,
in your hours of prime
and into every new wake.

So much in your saying
and the depths of each line,
while contrasts are playing
that is hard to define.

Oh darling of hours
so much in your giving,
that trust empowers
in each of its living.

And in times that still go on
through each of its step going,
that gives off its fact 'till gone
the word of truth in knowing.

Oh darling occasion
so many are your ways,
the customs and interpretations
those moments awake and plays.

So much in its weighing
for the truth to come out,
and futures outlaying
for that's what truth's about.
