Gershon Wolf Poet Light Verse

A Time For This -- a Time For That

A time to work
  A time to play
A time to leave
  A time to stay

A time to vent
  A time to chill
A time for routine
  A time for a thrill

A time to be messy
  A time to be neat
A time to be short
  A time to be sweet

A time for this ~ A time for that
  A time for prose
  A time for rhythm
    A time for rhyme  

A time to attack
  A time to lie low
A time to move fast
  A time to go slow

A time to frown
  A time to grin
A time to lose
  A time to win

A time for drink
  A time for food
A time to begin
  A time to conclude

A time for this  ~  A time for that
  A time for prose
  A time for rhythm
    A time for rhyme

Susan Gentry April 21, 2018 at 2:57 PM Enjoyed this, excellent read. Took me a long time to realize I choose what want to spend time doing. Use to worry all the time like I had no choice. In meantime other things were neglected. Now I choose not to. Either way outcome the same. Lots of wisdom in this piece. Gershon Wolf April 21, 2018 at 10:22 PM Thank you, Susan, for your comment and insight...High praise coming from you! Appreciated! :) gw
