No Time To Spend
Went to a shop where clocks are sold, wanted to buy some time
I was told that time is expensive and is a necessity when
one is getting old and near the end is priceless.
How time can fly by and how time goes by so slow
either way one cannot alter what stated in Genesis.
Can’t turn back the hands of time to regenerate
for life is already in motion nor can we disrupt its pace.
Time is of the essence of course, especially when
faced with time that is running short.
Can’t buy time or sell it, only appreciate
what it extends to us.
Can’t argue or bargain with it, will only lose out in the end
if we don’t value it’s weight up us.
We often hear someone ask ‘what time is it”
a good response would be ‘it’s time think about
what’s left of time’. , a bad response would be
‘’we have time on our hands’ so wasteful!
so the next time (had to use that word again,sorry)
you think you have time to spend, think again.
You may need that time to add later in your life.
Life is time and without time there would not
be a period to live..
‘best of time to all, use it wisely’
