The Center Of Time Poem by Grant House

The center of time
In the infinite multiverse in which we live
Is located precisely here and now

Look for the often overlooked six inch wood-carved mermaid
Held in place by two small nails above a neighbor's gate
A couple of doors up the street
All time radiates out from here
Now

Another place you will find it if you are looking
Is in your heart
I am, you may say with some confidence
The center of the past and the future

This infinity that is you
Lives in the ever unfolding now
Here

No one
No thing
More precious
Than this infinite you

The cosmos sees through your eyes
You are infinity waking to itself
I am, you might say
And you could leave it at that

I am
Here
Now
Aware

You might find yourself calmly smiling
Enjoy this moment
It is yours
The source of love
Your always home
The ending and the beginning
Accessible to all of us always

Wow!
From the darkness of not knowing
To the light of recognition
That who you are
Is the infinite source of being
Waking

I will meet you
Here
Now
In gratitude
In awe

In this I am
We are

Peace
