closet full of time

had a closet full of time
opened the door
tempestuous torrent
now time’s all over the floor
wading deeper i went
in this room full of rhyme

after aqua abated
despues de deluge
tempus transcended

shook time off my feet
stepped in to the beat
chronologically replete
therein did i meet

closet crammed with chimes
tiny trunk full of time
really’s quite sublime

chimes on my mind
must’ve been drunk
for i opened the trunk
stepped in with a plunk
and who’d’ve thunk
perhaps i’ve shrunk

closet full of time
opened the door
now time’s all over the floor
room full of rhyme
