In Advance


(From my poetry Collection 'Signatures')

Prior
Universe prepares everything in advance
Like a chef making dinner;
when  a diligent young mother
weaving  sweaters for the yet to be  born;
goldsmith making wedding  rings
not waiting until getting
due orders from the yet
to be born and grown 
fully formed  fingers
reminding of their vacantness 

This is not a reminder 
to seek your sweater
and find your rings
got ready  already
but of the other side.
Had you seeded
that fruit tree
which needed proper care
to offer fruits for your great
grand sons and daughters?
Universe expect us
 to be in advance
