TIME NO LONGER

Stanley Oliphant Batt

The dreamy past, the future we would scan,hold nothing more than now can give to man.The voice that spoke to Moses from the flamerevealed to Mary God's eternal name;and Paul's assurance comes as freely stillas though we also stood upon Mars' Hillwith those who raised to God an altar stonein superstitious dread of the unknown.The fisherfolk who gladly left the seato listen to the man of Galilee,the widow's son raised from the bier at Nain,heard nothing more than we that instant gainwhen sense is stilled and Mind its joys impartsto all receptive, pure, and honest hearts.For Science has declared the truth abroadthat man reflects his Father-Mother God.No past, no future! Time is proved a sham,for God is Life, is All, the great I AM.
