Tiny Grains of Sand

Time fleeting by… like tiny grains of sand falling through our fingers, When we know, hands are empty... the moment has passed! Grasp, seize the moments. For "Bite-size Poems No. 34"Poetry Contest Sponsor: Line Gauthier

So true..Time is fleeting and we can't hold every moment..We can just savour before it slips through our fingers. Inspiring piece!

Yes precious moments in time pass without a whisper . Seize the moments … kiss them … treasure them . Beautiful Mala ! Susan:)

Time slips away like granules of sand and it happens without our knowledge. Sadly the lost time cannot be retrieved . Lovely penning Mala !

Indeed, Malabika our time (our particular time) doesn't wait for anyone. It is ours alone to deal with, enjoy, use, pass... whatever. Most of all, it is NOT ours to waste! Good write, my friend.
