D-nyce the words of this haiku ring so very true, time stands still for no man, woman or child...So we had beter make good use of the time that we have. Thank you for sharing these pearls of wisdom :-) God's Love, Always, Adell

Just like an hour glass ... smile ... great use of Haiku here Deneen. Some times the simplest form says the most!

The funny thing about time is I spent most of my life waiting on a parole date as it ticked by so slow and now I look back and it just flew right by - Great poem Deneen - God Bless

No doubt about it. Time is so fleeting. Enjoy every moment while we can. Another great title, too! Love, Shar

Yes indeed...It is very true and well-known...Times plays between our fingers...and all is ephemeral, except Value:) Thank you for sharing, TYOne, Farah
