Notes About The Poem

Time Flows Through the Hour Glass

Time keeps marching on second by second flows Minute by minute the sand just goes Daytime, lunch, peace, or wartime Springtime, sublime time Time trickles Time Like nickles Slips through overtime Soon it reaches wintertime Where the time went only God now knows Time keeps marching on second by second flows
nickel, American coin worth 5 cents

Patrick, Thanks for the visit to my page. Yes, time slips away. We all have 24 hours in a day to spend but we all spend it differently. When we get old( if we are allowed to live that long), will we live with regret or will be happy of the way we spent our time? Sara

Love this...I often sit and think about time and how most of my friends and classmates have probably left this mortal coil...Just complained about the heat, seems like yesterday - and now Christmas looms.

Sherry, Time does have a way of swiftly passing by but then again sometimes it moves very slowly. Your comment is encouraging. Thanks for dropping by. Sara
