ALL TIME CAME CALLING

3.All time came calling

                        All time came calling
                        In this one moment
                        All the past
                        & all the present.
                        It swooped
                        Like a swallow
                        Through the open car window-
                        It came from the sun
                        That sat between the mountains
                        Blazing down
                        Upon the pines.
                        It flew, a blur
                        Up the winding road
                        Faster than I could drive.
                        It rushed through the forest
                        Over the dry red earth,
                        In and out of the thin grey trees
                        (Many fresh burnt):
                        Both future and history
                        It could be forever
                        Though it was only
                        The 10-minute journey
                        Between Forada
                        & Buscatell.
