Time

“Time”    -by DeanPeter

The ticking of the clock, tick tock

When we were little, old was afar

Just as far away as a distant star

It seems like time just takes forever

have you ever seen a rock?

 

The tick tock of the clock

It matters not to me

Things to do , places to be , there is no time for time

Have we ever tried to stop?

 

Not another tock! Not another tick,

It’s spinning to fast , we want the moment to last

Can someone slow it down,

The sound just makes us sick!

 

The grandfather clock just swaggers

With an occasional hollow clunk

Somewhere down the hallway, amid the cluttered junk

She’s been gone for years now, The children moved away

And here I sit so lonely, thoughts are none but stray

 

Yes , Father time has it’s rhymes

With a poetic justice ring

Ticking on so patiently

In the end we’ll hear it sing
