The Effects of Time
In this world controlled by the clock
we know nothing else but time
ever since birth knowing this in life
whether a watch or wall clock to chime
All of life whether school or in work
the alarm keeps us on one's toes
start and finish at the right time
never changes wherever one goes
That's where holidays are so good
you can run from time's restrictions
that life throws around your neck
having opportunity to flee life's frictions
Personally now that I'm retired
really appreciate living life so free
do whatever I like mostly timeless
looking at what I like all to see
Giving you time to relax so calm
enjoying life and do what you do
but time has it's purpose even good
look on in life give time it's proper cue
