Time Encapsulated


Time Encapsulated *Dr. K L Chowdhury
	Was Time ever made captive as when I conceived you my little angel, and made use of every infinitesimal second in shaping you, my darling, from the primordial egg to the merry embryo to a vibrant foetus? I weave at my will, every waking moment and every sleeping wink, the pattern of time into matter and space, to give you form. Time is in my grasp, Time is at my command, Time is encapsulated within me, Time is incarnate in my offspring. My blood waters the seed of Time to bring it to fruition and make the miracle of life possible within me.

Time Encapsulated

*Dr. K L Chowdhury

Was Time ever made captive

as when I conceived you

my little angel,

and made use

of every infinitesimal second

in shaping you, my darling,

from the primordial egg

to the merry embryo

to a vibrant foetus?

I weave at my will,

every waking moment

and every sleeping wink,

the pattern of time

into matter and space,

to give you form.

Time is in my grasp,

Time is at my command,

Time is encapsulated within me,

Time is incarnate in my offspring.

My blood waters the seed of Time

to bring it to fruition

and make the miracle of life

possible within me.
