Notes About The Poem

Dealing in Time Poetry Contest. Sponsored by: Joseph May

Time Tell Me Your Story

"Time... Always here but never here." By Poet
Time is a funny thing since time does not always seem real, yet I have been here since the beginning of time. Time cannot be seen or touched, but I am everywhere.
Many find me to be very rich, when they call me quality of time. Could I be used as currency? Would I need to show myself to you?
I am already currency for many, putting smiles on faces for volunteering. My currency as grandparent's time, having loving grandkids by their side.
Guess who my best friend is? It is barter. Barter and I go hand in hand, making many lives richer.
Time is used daily as a currency, when you need help the most. Someone will help you out, out with their precious time.

Time is money. Time can be bartered for good deeds. The more time we spend for others, the more dividend, we will earn. A very meaningful poem. All the Best dear Paula.

Agree with you time is currency. I often tithe my time since I don’t have much money to donate. This is an original write that will do well in the contest! Good luck and thanks for your feedback on many of my poems! Have a blessed day!
