Notes About The Poem

Tick Tock

Tick Tock

Tick Tock, the clock keeps moving... 
one moment then the next. 
Sometimes I wish that I could slow it down, 
and make it go around again, 
to spend more of my life on the good parts, 
and less or none at all 
on the bad. 

Tick Tock

L Milton Hankins July 23, 2022 at 1:54 PM Unfortunately, that is not the way of time, as you know, Ann. We must make the best of every minute, for once it is gone, it is gone forever. Even as we speak of the next minute, it too has fled!
