I Wonder How Time Changes Everything

I wonder how time changes everything
 Through very long passing
Or in just a blink of an eye;
A toy car under the bed,
A loved doll inside the box,
Or the silent greeting,
The forgotten names have not existed at all
Like lies hidden in the colors on the wall.
Like a kid I’m enraptured to see bubbles floating in the air,
An invitation,
But when I touch it,
 It goes to nothing,
As if I’ve seen nothing at all,
And I have to stop acting like a naive boy.

Leo Larry Amadore October 13, 2014 at 7:58 PM I enjoyed your poem....as a semi-famous poet once wrote: "Time can say nothing but 'I told you so.'...Time only knows the price we have to pay...If I could tell you, I would let you know." John Rey Canon October 13, 2014 at 9:34 PM Thank you Leo, I know that poem.
