Time, time, it is free for all but is so priceless, We must let go of the past- live in the present; The crazy thing is that it does not cost a cent, Now, right now is the time to go after your dreams. Many of us stay in jobs that are just mindless, And in relationships turned poison and shallow; Time to dust off those dreams and success will follow, There is no time like the present to dream it seems. Travel all emerald paths and follow blue streams, This life is fleeting- eternity infinite . . . ; Make each new moment beautiful and exquisite, Just start where you are because if not now, the when? Live the life you imagined, find your own sweet Zen, Start here and now before your time runs out. Amen Recently I saw, My life was going nowhere, Working a job below me. So, I said to me, Self, no time like the present, It is your time to just shine! __________________________ March 23, 2016 Poetry/Canzone/ Choka/There Is No Time Like The Present Copyright Protected, ID 16-771-240-0 All Rights Reserved.

Good poem, but even greater message within your words. There is no time like the "present" ... it's a gift! No use wasting time in a job you hate, when wings can fly high, so best no procrastinate. Cool blending of forms ... I've never tried a canzone before.

Timothy thanks for the lovely comment, the canzone is like a sonnet, Dante used canzone, you can use any rhyme scheme you want... that is the difference and it does not have to be 14 lines, can be 7 if you want...

Winged, thanks for visting, I agree it is my time to soar, but not today, we are having a nasty Canadian snow storm, tomorrow for sure, today I am snuggled up with my cats watching old movies, thanks for the 7 ~

I've encountered another new form and it is about "time!" Keep shining Broken Wings because it really "is your time!" This is about "timely enlightenment" "Sweet Zen, Amen!" :-)

Hi Broken Wings, That is so inspiring--and beautifully written. "Live the life you imagined, find your own sweet Zen, Start here and now before your time runs out. Amen" That couplet alone is worthy of a 7! Cheers, Brian

Time knows no idleness, use it or surrender. Is that a cliché? Good write. Well wishes in the contest B/W.

You are so brilliant the way you think of different ways to do these contests. What an interesting form you chose. I love acrostic so I plan to try a long phrase of his and do it as an acrostic!! (the one i love most: Actions Speak Louder than words)
