Time

Why is it? that time flies
when we are having fun
Yet creeps along so slowly
when we are expectantly
waiting for an event.
Or flashes past 
when we look back
on important things
like mile stones.

Spot on! So true, and this year flew so fast. I cant keep up with time sometimes, always love a poem on time, well written and delivered. Every line in this is so profound and you’ve said so much in few words. Pleasure reading this. Sending you light always

Yes so true, it is worse when you are waiting or something, like a holiday... it is always mindset i guess... the thing with time is that it is no ones friend and waits for no one... nicely expressed.
