“It Was Ages Ago”
To the close of the age,
Biblical wording used for Ascension Day,
Age to the end of time,
Time shifts with Age,
It was ages ago,
Age enters cultural shifts,
Pandemic closed an Age,
9/11 closed an Age,
Wars close an Age,
Hue-man measurements of young, of old, close an Age,
New Age begins with New Normal,
New Change, New Transition, New Growth,
That was ages ago,
No time to close the Age,
Time for transformation.
[This reflection is based upon a conversation with a friend about the Morning Prayer Gospel on Ascension Day: “Lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age”. The thought process would then continue with words from Sunday’s sermon: Change + Transition + Growth = Transformation. And, then looking back at one's life or events, the expression of "that was ages ago", now says let's move on. ]
