Poets and Time

Such an obvious thing! But it really is precious, and worth everything. It's such an annoying saying to me! Similar to the sting of a irate honey bee. Of course, I know that! But a worn out platitude, like a dingy, old hat. Our moments, like quicksilver run, Enchanting colors in the noonday sun. I know any moment could be my last. So, I run like a marathoner and live each day fast! I may not be here to pen another poem tomorrow. So, what am I waiting for~that will be both a pity and a sorrow!              3/16/2021                 ~2~

It’s all a matter of perception Pangie some people think poetry is a waste of time, others think lying on a beach is, at the end of the day, it’s what you enjoy doing that counts, so it’s never really wasted, cheers David

David, that poem was written for Poets not baseball players. Lol Specifically, for me. I can waste time by doing foolish things. I am good at that. And forget the poetry writing. But...I really cannot. Some booze, some blow weed, or watch movies. It's important for me to do poetry..Maybe not all Poets...for me..a must. Thank you...Pangie
