Endless Time
What do you do with your time?
There's twenty-four hours in a day and it may seem short but a lot can be accomplished in that short amount of time. The commitment is yours to make.
My mind perceives and interprets things differently than most, so I have to read things a few times to get a different conclusion each time. It helps me collect the different aspects of things and flourishing on the open mindedness of it all.
Endless Time by Rabindranath Tagore
Time is endless in thy hands, my lord.
There is none to count thy minutes.
Days and nights pass and ages bloom and fade like flowers.
Thou knowest how to wait.
Thy centuries follow each other perfecting a small wild flower.
We have no time to lose,
and having no time we must scramble for a chance.
We are too poor to be late.
And thus it is that time goes by
while I give it to every querulous man who claims it,
and thine altar is empty of all offerings to the last.
At the end of the day I hasten in fear lest thy gate be shut;
but I find that yet there is time.
beautiful poetry dear friend @joseph you have shared, I like this passage "We do not have time to lose,
and not having time we must fight for an opportunity.
We are too poor to be late "
Thank you very much for this beautiful poetry
I wish you a beautiful nights
Tagore was astonishing genius, really, almost of Vedic proportions. And his impact on Indian cinema, Bengali culture, and world culture as a whole is just immense.
He died 7 years before the independence of India, but his way of writing depicts his inner freedom. Yes, Freedom is a necessity but both ways: -Inner(Non- Physical) and outer(Physical). Today, Most of the countries are independent but still half independent because of inner constraints. I hope for Total Freedom.
Thanks for sharing his words
Lots of Love
