Rhythm of Time

RHYTHM  OF  TIME

7  15  pointers race accusingly.  Crawl out of bed.
Hurry to bus  8  00. Tulips open imperceptibly in the sun.
Bus creeps through gridlock.  Pointers spin in a blur.
Elevator stops at every floor. Wristwatch approaches light speed.
Begin morning mail-call late.  Priority action urgent.
Chronometer drags till  12  30.  Lunch hour.
Greased lightning hands sweep face.  1  30 arrives breathless.
Pointers develop rigor mortis till 5  30.  End of day.


.................................................

*Everyone knows the feeeling that time  drags or speeds up 
depending on your mood.
