What Is Time

Time is elusive
  Time flies - Tempus fugit
    Where'd the time go?

Time is in short supply
  There's not enough time
    You're out of time

Time is epochal
  Once upon a time
    The time has come

Time has value
  Time is of the essence
    The time of my life

Time is criminal in a way
  A devil of a time
    Kill time

Time is futuristic
  Ahead of the times

Except when it's not
  Behind the times
   
In the end, time disappears
  Time to fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the sixth poem I have read about time, and I wrote one of them today, so I am laughing at the universal idea that so many of us had - and on the same day! I am pondering this and smiling, as it does not seem like an accident, more like a major idea we all experienced in the same dream.
