tides of justice

Time is a patient teacher,
a slow drip that soaks into skin; 
a light bound lesson found in darkness,
an indelible trace of the journey.
Like rings of an ancient tree
counted dear in the stuff that makes us,
a wandering path that ends in truth revealed
before the most unwilling eyes.

The tides of justice ride upon a relentless sea
that takes all and keeps what it will
until it returns upon a someday shore
again to the sun, and in proof of all.

Faith sounds  above the noise
fails not the constant man, a doubtless will
holds power within each moment
to shape the world in the likeness of love.
