Time Flies Aloof

Days pass aloof to all hearts reap,
strays memories we wish to keep.
Ploys of time constantly remold
joys that we wish to ever hold.
While eyes close to deeply reflect,
vile time spies flashbacks to infect.
Should time leave my recall intact -
could be my joy would first react!

Great us of language, cool poem about time. I guess it can be aloof. it just keeps relentlessly moving forward, sometimes, taking a toll.

Darn! Why am I so bad at rhymes and you, my dear Cay Cay are so good. Just keep them coming. Let not memories erase the past. So well written.

I liked your view on Time. It can be fickle, magical, bad, good...<3

Dear cay cay, you are such a natural at rhymes and i absolutely love the depth of this poem, i always find a poem that talks about time inspiring and resonating and yours really did connect, and i must say yes time does play tricks on us sometimes and we are often left with memories that surround us, this is a poem that many would sit and connect with for its evocative nature. I love the flow and of your lines too! Pleasure reading you today . Sending you light always

Wow, such a deeply reflective and thoughtful write this is, dear! I'm awestruck by your writing style and ability of carving so many evocative ideas within a few words whilst maintaining an effortless flow throughout with stunning rhymes. As moments pass, memories trail our hearts and the twists of time cease to give us a second to pause & reflect... I absolutely resonated with your words here! So glad to read your poetry for the first time, today! Sending best wishes and light ~
