The Tyranny of Time

Let not the past hold you in thrall
Forever bound in bonds of regulation.
Tradition is a useful tool
But dangerous in its adulation.

Let not the day to come, destroy
With fears of what may come or not
And half born niggles that annoy
What precious or joy we’ve got.

Embrace the God who is today,
Eternal yet forever now.
His constancy will now allay
Your fears and so sweet peace allow.

Peter M. Grinham 25th October 2018
