Tick Tock, Hear the sound of clicks It's time ticking, seasons flaking away With each new tick, never find ease Lean closely my dear & hear more cleanly, This low pitched mellow voice, Urging on, the rushing of mighty winds In even bits of every unit In each stutter of time
Clickity clat , are the batteries dying? All is slow I hope the hands of the mother clock are jammed, Perhaps the sun is falling, With its orbits never again to reign, To press the laws of time
Or perhaps the light on time has shone In rigid rays enforced a home on the inside Kin to heart, petted to a snooze To find me relief from the ladens of regret, From a racing heart and a boiling mind To have me reflecting on the little things Amassed round and about my soul To have me enjoy the procession of life, Than suffer the knocks of a losing squabble Against the hands of time
This piece is a portrayal of the nature of time and the immutability in its working. Time flows and is ever new, it is therefore worthwhile for us to spend it meaningfully, living each present moment in positivity, confidence, courage and in appreciation
