Ripples in Time

A surface flat and still
Glass untouched and unbroken
A pebble drops from an unseen hand
Ripples flow outward from the source
In an instant small waves form
Time fades as the waves crest and fall

A surface disturbed and tense
Glass fingerprinted and fractured
A rock is thrown from an unseen hand
Ripples flow quickly outward from the source
In an instant large waves form
Time wanes as the waves crash up and down

A surface of chaos and disorder
Glass shattered and transformed
A massive boulder plops into the epicenter
Ripples join together to conceal their origin
In an instant our source is hidden by the intersecting waves
Time stands still in awe of creation

We all have an opportunity to forget our petty hatreds and make a positive impact on OUR world. What ripples will you start today?

In loving memory of Marshall Jensen
