TEMPUS FUGIT ~ TIME FLIES !

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

 

What did you do ~ YESTERDAY 

Did you take time out to stop to pray

Or help a Lost Sheep tp find his way 

Or post a poem ~ to have your say

What did you do ~ YESTERDAY ?

 

What will you be doing ~ TODAY

Be glad it's Friday and get your pay

Thanks GOD you're not out of work today

Help a Neighbour ~ who's life is grey

What will you be doing ~ TODAY ?

 

What will you do when it's ~ TOMORROW

Comfort a Friend ~ who's life is sorrow

Give someone 10 dollars ~ who asked to borrow

Focus on self ~ and plough you own furrow

What will you do when it's ~ TOMORROW ?

 

How do you spend each precious HOUR

Grooming yourself and taking a shower

Hating you Job ~ but loving the Power

Dreaming all day ~ in your Ivory Tower

How do you spend each precious HOUR ?

 

PROCRASTINATION ~ The THIEF of TIME

I've dillied & dallied  ~ so he stole mine 

Putting things off is such a crime

Seize the Day and Squeeze the Lime

PROCRASTINATION ~ The THIEF of TIME 

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN

 

Whether you're a Pauper or a Prince ~ on the stroke of

midnight we all receive a fresh and equal allocation of

twenty~four hours.  How we value them and how we use

them is largely our responsibility !  We can waste time ~

abuse time ~ just let it flow away ~ OR ~ we can value

each minute and make the most of it ~  CARPE HORA ~

SEIZE THE HOUR and use it profitably ~ Yours BRIAN XOX

    A fine write Brian. Ohh, I spent too long in vanity - on the sherry! heehee. I'm 99% tee-total!

    • BRIAN & ANGELA

      Don't worry STEVE @ your stage in life you need a little relaxation so get your feet up and sit in the sun with your chilled glass of Harvey's Bristol Cream ! Thanks BRIAN.

        Doesn't it just. I make sure I do something worthwhile every day. Sometimes for my myself. sometimes for my wife, sometimes for others - often something for everyone. Today I have to sort out the Autumn programme for the local art club - not something I particularly enjoy doing but if I don't do it who will? Great write Brian and so true.

          Value each moment as they come, every moment is special and will not come back. Good write Brian.

            That very true ANDY we van neither go forward or back in time ~ which is why the present (V 2.) is always much more precious than the PAST or the FUTURE ~ Yours BRIAN

              Well presented examination of time and how one spends it ... very thought-provoking, Briansodes. Good reflection to start the day with!

                    I suppose too many of my hours are spent off in other worlds, living others lives. But such is the life of an author. This was a great write, worthy of the time it took to write this comment!

                    I loved the poem, very neat and I liked the rhyming pattern
