A hop, skip and a jump <br />From where it is we're going, <br /> <br />A hop, skip and a jump <br />From ever really knowing. <br /> <br />Such a short distance and yet so vast <br />And in all the unknowing the die's been cast. <br /> <br />Best we not see what the future brings. <br />Best just to concentrate on how the nightingale sings. <br /> <br />For the hop, the skip and the jump <br />Is the uncertainty we all must face. <br /> <br />For linear time that's present on earth <br />Has been limited since our birth.<br /><br />Edwina Reizer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-hop-skip-and-a-jump/
