Affected by time
Time flies as a temperamental child,
She’s chucking her toys out of her pram,
She’s a tempest in a glass casket,
Time zooms by.
A passing sparkling rocket.

Time grows and creates.
An education in the ways of life.
Time is the quay for the husband or wife,
An anchorage for quiet moments.
Spent together or alone.
Sadly,
The revolving of time is revolting at times,
The thought of ageing petrifies.
Time carried in her wings many friends and lovers.
Some current some lost.
Time herself is precious.
An ancient pearl, such wisdom.
Lessons learned.
No matter how many pleas we make.
For life and time to go slower,
It’s a natural progression.
Hanging out in a world of free expression,
Before into the light we fly.
