Hourglass Lesson

*This is actually a combination of a Nonet and Etheree. The Nonet is first. I was just having some fun :) As time passes by, another day The road we travel twists and turns Winding new discoveries No need to count minutes No need for dwelling Have fun instead Quality Savored Now When You find The reason To live fully Worries Disappear Hidden in piles of sand Moving free with gravity All that an hourglass does tell us Time, if we do choose to look at it Spending versus watching, no more wasting Heidi Sands 11/25/19

Thank you Bette. I am not sure what the design of the hourglass looks like on your end, it is kind of crooked depending on what device I use, lol I appreciate your kind comment. Have a nice day :)

Love the message -- no more wasting Time! -- and love equally the shape you've given it! Cheers, Gershon

Hi. That is right, no more wasting time. It seems my shape to my poem shows different on my phone since it was put in on the tablet, so it is a bit crooked right now here ...lol. Thank you very much Gershon :)

A talented write Heidi--not only you combined two forms seamlessly--but also presented meaningful thoughts to ponder.

Hi Eve, well I guess that makes 3 forms then lol. I combined Nonet with Etheree, and then added shape/concrete. Thank you very much :)
