Timing

When is the right time?
The time to say
“I love you” or
“I’m done with this?”



When is the right time to put down
the dog
the cat
or say goodbye
to shoes so old
their price tags
make you laugh?

The head says,
“Set goals,
give them time limits.”
The heart often
thinks
better of it.

Where is the cosmic alarm clock?
The oven timer
that tells you when
something is cooked?

I will go deep within
my biological clock
set to cosmic cycles.

I will await word
from the falling star
of inner knowing.
