A Diamond of Time

Time shines with diamond in my life I’m smitten to catch, I’m enticed… I chaste to hug and value every second For speedy growth of my work-productions To get the abundant fruits or flowers all in bloom. Oh, I love every diamond of time Squandering is remote for me, workload whines I hate any deficit, bankruptcy or loss For I could never bring back its swift passages So I’ll save, use wisely…on air- I’ll always catch, grab and never toss. We can’t buy diamond of time No one can measure its price But it's found everywhere-- available and free Valuing it is also a great appraisal On our self-worth ---object or agree?
