Golden Enemy

It passes by us while we stand aside It's always in a rush and on the go If not careful it will take all your pride It's our worst enemy, we all should know. This criminal is referred to as time It can be watched and kept, but not delayed Letting him unnoticed is our worst crime Once he leaves he cannot be bought or made. His value is much more than that of gold The worth of him is sometimes overlooked Young he remains, but you will still grow old Educator he is, without a book. If used wisely he acts as a friend would Always there and supporting as he should
