Blink Twice

When we're young
  life's journey endless
Seems 'twill last forever

Blink twice, we're old
  trail's turned to dust
Horizon lost ~ now is never

Yeah, time is like a quick flash of lightning, but try to imagine it in slow-mode, that should retard its movement a bit. Fingers crossed! Cheers!...ab

It is fleeting, definitely, Gershon. It seems like I have been checking out the horizon since I was a kid. Sort of like Maureen says.

I'm amazed how the time has flown. It truly is in the blink of an eye. Stay frosty.
