Timesongs

time is a shadow
that follows us around
some choose to ignore it 
others they bow down
the clock like a beacon
an image of sorts 
wakes us up 
and gets all kinds of retorts
ticking and tocking, clanging away
keeping the world's rhythym 
till the end of the day
then continuing on
many years have gone 
ticking and chimeing 
sounding a Bong!
time moves on
the world changes
time is consistent 
flowing like a river 
our companion.
