The Time

Tick, tick, tick says the 
Clock,make haste while 
The sun shines.
For a stitch in time saves 
Nine.
  Tick, tick,tick says the 
Clock,am always on a 
Slow steady motion, 
Waiting nor stopping.
Moving like a train-
Carrying along the wise 
Ones-for time is in 
Constant flux.
   Tick, tick, tick, says the
Clock,though I err-as 
Regulator of time.
But time waits no man.
Judicious use of time 
Yeilds,nonchalant attitude
Breeds failures and 
Regrets.
   Tick, tick, tick slips the 
Time.
