Time?

Goldfinch60



Time,

So much to do,

But where does it go?

Time,

There should be enough,

But it disappears.

Time,

It is always with me,

Why does it vary.

Time,

It takes seconds.

That last hours,

Time,

That inconsistency

In my life.

Time,

Sometimes too much,

But mostly not enough.

Time,

So much time,

But where does it go?

Time.

    I had time to read this fine poem Gold.

  • Alan .S. Jeeves

    Good subject Andy. Leaves the reader with their own question to answer.

    I wouldn't have recognized 'Tiger Rag' though, if I hadn't been told and it is a number I know so well.
    Take a listen to the wonderful Albert Lee playing it on his electric guitar (you tube) ~ when you have the time!

    Ex animo, Alan

    Friend or enemy time has its own way of going just how quickly or slowly it wants - you verse it's contrariness so well here Andy........ time has us all in its grasp. Love the number.

    Hi Goldfinch60

    A superb write.

    Why is it when we are younger time is immortal and as we mature it is precious and should never be wasted?

    Keep writing FineB

    Indeed where does the time go. Seems to me that the older you get the faster it speeds away.
    I still manage to waste plenty of it mind you.

    A question I have often pondered - fine work Andy.

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE - I can play Tiger Rag (& Bum of the Fightel Bee !) but not that fast. Tempus Fugit for me - it never goes slow - stops or goes backwards ! My work is very programmed in terms of how much time I can spend (individually) with each of my Clients and my Clinics start (and finish !) @ specific times. I like group sessions (like AQUATHERAPY = Leap for Life !) best - because I can have up to 10 Clients in the POOL at once ! Im on the EDGE but I can give each individual 5 mins attention - BUt - they all get an HOUR in the WARM pool doing exercises they could not do - out of the water. It works for HORSES as well and I have seen the facilities @ Newmarket - very impressive !
    I remind PEOPLE (who say they have no time) that each individual gets the same allocation 24 pristine hours every working day ! 8 for Sleep - 8 for Work & 8 for Eating - Study - Prayer - Recreation - Fellowship etc etc. I find it is sufficient (I am organised and I still sleep on my own @ my Parents !) but i do love the WEEKENDS - Chance to wind down on Saturday & Worship & Visit on a Sunday ! Time is precious ! USE IT WISELY - AMEN !

    Blessings & peace to YOU & Y0URS
    LOVE - Angela & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก
