tick tock tick tock tick tock
tick tock tick tock
tick tock
on it goes
patience, patience, patience
and then,
a moment,
a hint of happening.
suddenly, a thousand little moments
inspired, inspiring the sprite within
like yet another seed as it cracks its encasement
creeping coyly into the surrounding soil
taking root among the fertile bed
springing, sassy and surely; life renewed
O, happy lesson, O, lucky day
When two see something
a different way.
