Beyond Time Allowed
My job is to make the unlikely happen
my passion driven to embrace the bliss
My vocation seeks to find the answers
my avocation wanders—soul remiss
My intellect bargains away the hours
my spirit embraces each moment now
My story when told is about the journey
that road I traveled—beyond time allowed
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2018)
