Time - the Essence

Now is the moment
To read, to speak and to act
Now is the moment
For trust to install
To call and to take that call

It's no secret that
Every second is the first
It's no secret that
Every moment the clock turns
The Lost time never returns

To live in present
Necessarily makes sense
To live in present
Is lifestyle decent
For the time is of essence
