Time

Time Passes Slowly Bobby Dylan said When I was young and I sought to conquer my own Everest I suppose he was right But then,as time passed , And the conquering of Everest became a daily fight I realized with a fright When Bobby Dylan said that, He himself was still young And now at seventy plus I am sure Bobby will agree Time actually moved so fast Today, i still endeavour to conquer my own Everest I realize now that I overtook my own youth And I am freewheeling to my old age Time oh precious commodity Full of humor and irony Why else would you only pass slow to the youthful and young? I can't write like Bobby Dylan nor a song like him can I sing But if I could I would place this lament before his door Time flies and that's for sure
