Time
By Murray Dunlap
In a moment, I was gone.
No words to describe my brain’s vacation.
I have no idea who or where I was.
But now, a stone’s throw from my place of birth.
With family and friends all around.
I can breathe. And time to think.
Mistakes have been made.
But it is love that has put me straight.
And feeling true to myself, among others.
In a time of madness, love has set me free.
Murray,
I’m beginning to take mini-vacations myself.
Your sensitive portrayal is soul-releasing . . . Love is the ultimate transcendence.
Thank you Sharon! Ain’t love grand!
This one is for Mary Balfour, of course.
In a time of madness, love has set me free. Beautiful!
Thank you Jeanette!
