Time

There’s plenty of time!
Times’s running out!
It sounds like time is a water spout

Time’s moving fast
Time’s moving slow
Does time really have somewhere to go?

Don’t waste time—Time is money!
So—We stuff time in our wallets?
Isn’t that funny!

Set your clocks in November
An hour you’ll lack
Don’t worry—next summer you’re getting it back!
But be it winter, summer, spring or fall

We really know nothing about time at all!

One thing I've noticed Robert is as you get older it speeds up. Tom

Robert: Lots of time cliches and puns will be filling your box. For me your merry romp was delightful. - Ken

Thank you, Ken, for your encouraging response. After reading "What Was I Thinking." I recognize a kindred spirit; I often feel thoughts encumbered when they should flow.
