Click hereTime at Hand
Close thy eyes,
Time at hand.
Precious and foolish,
Maybe I am!
Hope does reign,
Sword pulled from sand,
Slashing the pain,
Purging the land.
Echoes flounder,
Bounce from wall to wall.
Chaotic mind with a heart sounder,
Deep breath taken, I begin to fall.
Over the edge,
Raw and young,
Time endless,
No words caress the tongue.
Speechless desire,
Needs to be met.
The heroine begins to tire,
Her foot on the path is set.
Ancient and Youthful.
Love is the grail.
Compassion and kindness,
All else does pale.
Journey alone,
Finding the truth,
Ready to share,
With one who eludes.
Herself she finds,
In others and all things,
One with all time,
Rich life this does bring.
Outsider in,
Insider out.
Now is the time,
No longer she doubts.

"outsider in, insider out" is my favorite line! The only rhyme that is a little awkward is the one with "eludes" because of the plural...otherwise, this poem flows smoothly. It appears to come from a period where you were doing many rhyming poems. (PS- that's a good idea...to date your poems!)
