Time Is Never Enough
Time Is Never Enough
Sunset must be time
chores may surcease
For the day's grime
to clean or release.
Industry has a knack
to outdo surcease
Workers back to back
daily bask in grease.
Time is not enough!
**
Time is never enough
to preach and achieve
Puller of sin's plough
to free and to believe.
Time is never enough
to work and succeed
To earn enough dough
and abandon greed.
Time is never enough
Friendship to find
Grudge to openly bluff
Hate to leave behind.
Time is never enough
Child to rightly raise
To fear Sin and the Rod
God to vaunt or praise.
Time is never enough
to love my own mother
Fully and not by half,
Not disdain or smother.
Time is never enough
books to buy and read,
Quaff all the crafty stuff
Wisdom to fill my head.
Time is never enough
to learn cultures new
To enjoy and to laugh
at Life's amazing clue!
Time is never enough
though not a gourmand
To taste every foodstuff;
drinks and every brand.
**
I need enough time
enough time to travel
immerse in a new clime
intricacies to unravel.
...Time to understand
meaning of Life's time
That, whilst at hand
why not enjoy its clime!
Endow me, therefore,
with time and space
To search and explore
Life and Nature's face.
For, Time is not enough
to waste its time
But, what is enough
is time to "use" its time!
