Present Past Future

 

 

Yesterday I got to thinking

About yesterday,

You know,

Those hovering visits

Much like a bee revisiting

A flower that has been

Visited many times before,

The nectar’s all but gone

But the flower’s there,

And the memory of

The sweetness remains as

Vivid and wonderful as

It was on the first tasting,

Today I got to thinking

About today

And tomorrow,

The simplicity of

This Yogi life is that

The three are pretty much

The same, all smiles,

Yes, Meeleirrek,

I see you walking

Your body through the fine

Mist of your favourite perfume,

Present, past, future.
