The Gift by Sharon Stark

The gift of time
comes wrapped
in the beauty of
every new morning
expanding
as we appreciate
these fresh moments given

into this present
we let our heart
increase it’s capacity
to care, to love
Not too busy
to overlook
injustice nor misfortune
but a heart tuned
to the rhythms of God

where there is
time to give
time to serve
time to love
in both word and deed
time given the opportunity
to become fruitful
with eternal purpose
