Notes About The Poem

Hourglass

Life is like a big hourglass 

it will run its course. 

Live it to the fullest without 

remorse.

Time is active and constantly 

on the move. 

We’re given a certain amount, 

so be intentional and improve.

Time is like sand in a giant hourglass; it runs out eventually. Alexis, you nailed it when you stated, "Enjoy life to the fullest." Wonderful concept.
