Time

what do all people need 
even if they are not of greed?

something small, something free
on this we can all agree

for if there was more of this
we think we would then have bliss

but we are wrong, as people are
the wish we used on the star

was wasted some say
and even to this day

has it come true?
not for me, not for you

the reason for which i made this rhyme
was to describe time

My sister told me a rhyme and the answer was time, so I wrote this.
