Time

Oh precious time, where have you gone,why constant is your flow.............

You swallow us up and draw us on, to where we fear to go...............


You whisper the possibilities, you engulf us in your chants...............

You make us believe we can do the don't and attempt to can the can't...........


We stumble and fall, but you beckon  to us to rise and to venture on............

We race to the end of our own life time, then with a KISS,,,, you leave us ALONE........


We clasp on the you with such desparation, we who have come from the dust...........

We are fools for out thrive for we not let you go,,,,it is YOU, who lets go of us............
