Magic Hourglass of Time

The Hourglass is a device used to measure the passage of time.
      The clock is ticking transparent of the sky at night shows
            The constellations when the fire-breathing stars
                  Freak out the searcher's bare skin
                       Will glee great delight through
                           Rain drops of water
                               Soon enough
                                   There will 
                                      Be
                                Fallen leaves
                             From the branch of trees
                         Of the forest trees and then
                     Follows winter's breeze will sneeze
                  Then ever grain of sand covered with
                Winter's snow buried until another year
            Until the magic of spring reappear the new year.
