Time Seems To Go Faster
Remarkable how time seems to go faster
As we age, truth is, we move much slower,
If we are not careful, time passes us by
We grow less purpose-driven, mellower.
We leave more to the next generation
Feel we have accomplished our life's tasks
Look forward to receiving some veneration
Like to spend more time with our flasks.
Sometimes we think about time stopping
Knowing it will someday surely stop for us,
When into our rocking chair we are plopping
The cares of the day are no longer a fuss.
