Thank you Daver. It must be somewhat hard for young ones to fully comprehend the full meaning of this senryu! ~ All the best. // paul

Thank you Andrea. ~ As far as I know there isn't such a contest on offer; maybe many of us have been brooding over time's relentless speed! // paul

Hi Casarah! I'm no pessimist, but reality of life can't be discarded, thus we tend to get caught up in dark moments. Fortunately they never last long:) Hugs // paul

An intriguing perspective you have taken on time consumed, my friend. It is one which is very much true, though. Good one! hugs

Sometimes one can't help being caught up in one of these sad moods; best way out is to put it down in writing! Thank you, Kim, for popping in to brighten the atmosphere:) ~ Hugs // paul
