The Clock Is Ticking

The clock is ticking
And time keeps slipping away 
Get your business completed 
That should be the goal for today 
Your hands should not be idle 
Keep yourself occupied 
Take back your lost momentum 
And make yourself bonafide

The Clock Is Ticking

Can you hear the clock ticking?
It gets louder every year,
A time piece that reminds me,
That my eternity is getting near.

Can you hear the clock ticking?
It runs faster all the time,
How many ticks do I have left?
Numbered are the days that are mine.

Can you hear the clock ticking?
It echoes in my ear,
I try not to dwell on,
My ever-growing fear.

Can you hear the clock ticking?
It keeps running never a doubt,
Like sand thru the hour glass,
Only to stop when my ticks run out.


Clock Is Ticking Down

C-lock is ticking down, 
A-s time is running out, 
S-ound of the trumpet
S-hall be heard without a doubt.
A-round roaming is the devil, 
N-ear is the judgment day; 
D-eceitful tactics he employs, 
R-uining our faith to take it
A-way.

L-ittle time is left for our foe, 
A-s he works doubly hard; 
N-ever ever shall we all be
D-efeated by being not on guard.
R-ound the clock we must prepare, 
I-nstead of being asleep; 
T-aught lessons we must obey, 
O-r else we will sink so deep.

V-ery soon the world will end, 
E-nemy's anger is getting high; 
N-ever give in to the devil's lure, 
I-nstead we must fight his lie.
D-ay fifteen in July morn, stay firm, standing our ground; 
A-ll chances we must take, for clock is ticking down.

watch  it as it sit
it'll be quick

The Clock Is Ticking

Tomorrow is for dying
Yesterday was for dreaming and hope
Today is to stop repeating the violence of the past, but
This present hour is to experience beauty and happiness

Appreciating your beauty brings happiness to me
Makes me realize they are you, both inseparable, but
Only one hour of every day, for beauty, love and happiness? 
We have no time to waste; the clock is ticking

Love is like trying to describe the drifting snowflakes
Or holding onto the sun’s rays that heat your skin
Love is like autumn’s shade that has smothered the summer colors
Leaving behind only memories to be locked away 

I long to dream the dream of a lifetime 
With you the centerpiece in my dream 
You are the epitome of my love's aspirations
What I live for

Words sometimes belie our intentions, and 
desired passions may be thwarted prematurely 
by anticipation, but most welcomed 
when they are reciprocated

Tomorrow is for dying
Yesterday was for dreaming and hope
Today, to avoid repeating the violence of the past,
This lonely hour is to acknowledge the beauty of the world, to
Love each other and find that elusive happiness

We have no time to waste; the clock is ticking.

The Clock is Ticking

What a sad state of affairs
Seems that no one in Washington cares
The politicians know that they stink to high hell
Yet they continue to do nothing to lessen the smell
What happened to compromise as a possible solution?
What happened to “country first” as the proper resolution?
It would seem that those we elected to serve
Put their individual party needs as those that deserve
The next election is all they give a hoot about
And they are deaf to the protests no matter how loud we shout
But with the streets full of those taking exception
The ground swell of protest takes on a new powerful direction
Deaf dumb and blind the politicians may be today
But the time is coming when they won’t have their way
What they are doing to this country is a crime and that is a fact
For destroying it from within is a treacherous act
The choice is ours and we must take charge of our fate
Act know, speak out before it’s too late.

Clock Is Ticking Fast Poem

Hello my december love
you are sexy to me.
Baby finer then a blue star
in a cold winter night honey.
My heart yearns for
your sweet tender embrace.
Holding you ever
so tightly my dear love.
Just like a warm cool
summer breeze.
Into your ocean
deep i want to become.
As the stars engulf
and made powerless.
For such a good love
so very true i all most.
Drowned in your passion
my sexy lady of love.

The Clock Is Ticking

This road is not an easy one.

There are many obstacles trying to block my path.

Help me get through to the unbelievers, oh Lord.

Help me reach them,

so they won't have to face your terrible wrath!

Let them see You through me Lord.

Let me be a light in the darkest hour.

If they think this world is hard now,

they haven't seen anything yet,

it will only get SO MUCH HARDER!

They don't realize!

You are who You say You are!

You will do what You say You will do!

The clock is ticking!

They better get ready,

or their life will be in utter doom!
