Time

Would we could turn back the hours;
transport rearward that small hand,
take back a few we wasted,
perhaps youthfully misused.

Yet, if it was made be so,
of which past hours to erase?
For each led to another,
an autumn leaf on river.

I enjoyed your your "Time" write. I would like to go back in time if I could make some changes. Guess many feel this way... Have a wonderful day writing away..................
