Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Wind Me Up

Wind me up
  Let me go
Here I come
  I'm in the flow

Sunday, Monday
  moving fast
Tuesday, Wednesday
  Will it last?

Thursday, Friday
  Now I'm gassed
Hurray for Shabbos*
  The week has passed

Valsa George January 7, 2022 at 8:10 PM How quickly time passes.... Sand grains quickly dropping down through the hour glass and pages after pages are torn from life's tome. Gershon Wolf January 8, 2022 at 7:14 PM Yes, indeed. And just think, some day in the future, these days (in 2022) will be the 'good old days.' Frightening, isn't it?! AGAY (Ain't getting any younger!)

Joseph P. DiMino January 7, 2022 at 6:56 PM Goes faster and faster the older I get -- day's now are a flash it seems. Excellent ride, Gershon. Joe. Gershon Wolf January 8, 2022 at 7:16 PM For me, the days are long, but the weeks and months go by like lightning. All in the perception, as they say. Happiness and Light, gw

Debra L Brown January 7, 2022 at 5:41 PM Hi Gershon, I love the bubbly rhythm. Nice rhyming pattern. Blessings ~ Debra Gershon Wolf January 8, 2022 at 7:20 PM You are so perceptive Debra: Your comment about 'bubbly rhythm' -- How did you know that I was taking a bubble bath when I wrote this?... O.K. Would you believe that I was blowing bubbles? ... No? O.K. Would you believe that I was chewing bubble gum? ~ Agent 86: Don Adams
