The Relativity of Time
Time is transient, time is slow
Time directs us where to go
Time expands in time of stress
And encourages us to rest
Sometimes time keeps going fast
As the excitement doesn’t last
When hard times fall in our lap
Time can often fill the gap
Time can stretch for countless hours
And exudes a magic power
It can feel like many days
When the passion doesn’t stay
We crave hours in the day
Bat at times keep them at bay
Sometimes we want time to speed up
When we are hard pressed for luck
Time is transient, time is slow
When we need it, we press “go”
It can pass us just like that
And can leave our needs unmet
Treasure time in every hour
Capture its tremendous power
Although it’s not always the same
It is here and ours to claim
