Defining Time
We are all children held tight in the arms of time
As it passes we must learn to grow and then read the sign
Eventually time becomes master to us all
For one-day father time will be making his final call
Wrinkles come with wisdom we earn over the years
They glorify our laughter and they signify our tears
Time is the one thing that can break down the most vain
They say time has the ability to heal any pain
Time is forever it is as vast as the sky
You will never defeat time no matter how hard you try
Spend your life living and cherishing the time you have got
Because one day your time on earth will end, like it or not
These final words that I pen are the swish of my sword
Time is a living entity we all know as the Lord
