Keeping Time
Little wheels are turning inside
That keep the watch keeping time
The hands moving slow and steady
To tell time always ready
With each second there is change
With life rarely remaining the same
And before you know it time is gone
Too late then to act upon
Things change each minute too
Like the dawn and morning dew
Events we cannot reverse
Or replay of mother earth
And there are hours gone
Some seeming short and others long
The time passed by having fun
A shorter hour for everyone
On the round little face
The piece shows the change in date
And helps to notify
That the days are passing by
