Quam Tempus Fugit
You watch it haste and watch it fly, Why try espy it flashing by? Now you see it, now you don't, Then you heard it ~ now you won't. First, it's here and then it's gone, Much the same for everyone. Like a cloud high in the air Glance once more and it's not there. Like a bubble drifting past, Though you know it...

Tempus Fugit
TEMPUS FUGIT I seemed to be going through a change, Maybe the male menopause. Or perhaps a mid-life crisis, But I had fun whatever the cause. I purchased a Harley Davidson To roar about the place And I rescued my flares from the wardrobe That I’d held on to, just in case With a cowboy shirt and a shoe-lace tie, I reckoned I looked pretty...

Someday
Someday we'll all see the sky and not rebuke the rain The sun will shine the morning dew will glimmer But not one there to baske upon it's day The trees will shed leaves with it's seeds as it breeds And mountains will fuel causeways turned into Oceans The depth of the canyons so rich and eroded Hold secrets...

While in my youth I racked my brain to fill up Time Taken aback By Time’s fast pace Once in my prime Dismissive still that Time ticks on indeed clockwise Not feeling yet that treasured Time so fleeting flies Of trite excuse « for lack of Time » I had no fears Time’s metronome hounds hastily in golden years...

another day is almost done scented bubbles - an anticipation warm water calls her by her name: a relaxing "mom time" accommodation with exhalation, hands gently grasping a book binding worn to smooth eyes lusting for a deep escape each written word meant to soothe her heart covertly coveting, for a short time, an empty abode her favorite novel only just begun short self-care arrangement is...

Tempus Fugit
Does anyone else have the feeling That life is escaping too fast That passing of time leaves you reeling As present reverts to the past? A blink, and the baby is crawling Then walking to school on his own Too soon university's calling And full independence is sown. For time cannot stall in its travels And yes, we should treasure what's gone, But shape as...

Time, that old imposter, who kids you its on your side, in your early years embrace it, with both arms open wide for soon its perfidious nature will steal your youth away, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by insidious day. The signs are not apparent, the symptoms surreptitious. Your hair falls out, you get the gout and all...

I sat by the television today. Bored out of my mind I must say. I appreciate that I have senior status not as if it really matters. But when the television announcer place me as and old person. How time flies. I was just appreciating being a senior. Oh well tempus fugit....

Tempus Fugit L (Time Flies) Written: by Tom Wright 4/15/2018 When faced with a project that I’m eschewing, The time seems prolonged and I speculate why. But undertaking assignments that I enjoy doing, Time escapes, and figuratively speaking, does fly. ...

Tempus Fugit - Part Two

Tempus Fugit
Tempus Fugit. Memories are imprinted, through moments, and fleeting minutes, as, they fade like polaroid stills, dimmed by the flight of time, caught between, the banal and the sublime. Years trickle by, stubbornly trudging ahead, straining to embrace echoes of nostalgia, yearning to hold them near, seeking new memories, carved by the trail of a lonesome tear. Tomorrow may not arrive, as it lies at the mercy, of time's fickle flight, and as...

Tempus Fugit
I have slipped into the darkest of mindsets, and it is only now that i see the light. I have seen the bright nights and dark days, and they are no different from one another nor my soul. Who knew the abyss was like a spotlight.... The devil-may-care attitude I so humbly embraced, has become more devil and less 'may...
