To Lightly Dance
by Alicia Beckwith
Time is chasing after us
With fast, furious pace
Setting down the ‘magic’
Each of us must face
Making a hole in the heart
That time cannot erase.
We must grasp the chance
So one may lightly dance
With one who matters much
And hold the ‘magic’ with tender touch
So when the time draws nigh,
Go gently with wings on high
To that final resting place
Where we shall see His face.
Alicia Beckwith has been painting, drawing, and writing since her teenage years. She’s working on a book presently and hopes to publish it in the near future.
