Time Travel
When a flower's petal falls to the ground
It will never return for time is bound
To follow the path with one direction,
Like one-lane road, to prevent collision
Of mem'ries from the past and the future.
Yet all know that tomorrow is unsure;
Therefore no dream can ever come today.
Life moves, as in geometry, in a ray.
Almost everything is termed in science
Using ''now'' as the frame of reference
Like the word ''time machine'' which is not made;
Time travel can't be done but can be said.
When there's an old favorite melody,
Our mind goes back to the past memory.
