Light Speed

Time's tempo like torture is slow 
Just part of a youth's ebb and flow
But later the pace 
Of each year starts to race   
As the old among us must know

Indeed, How very true, Duke. Perfect execution of the pen in the limerick form. Very nice. Thanks for sharing and thank you for your kind comments today. I do find peace in nature and that is where I go when I need it and indeed I am blessed. Best wishes, Caroline.
