Time Marches On

Time marches on, through dusk and dawn.
Time marches on, through silence and song.

Time marches on, unmoved by pleasure and pain.
Time marches on, unmoved by grief and glory.

Time marches on, past valor and vanity.
Time marches on, past fame and fall.

Time marches on, beyond triumph and tragedy.
Time marches on, beyond fortune and failure.

Time marches on, above wealth

Time Marches Forward

Our relationship is done
we can no longer continue.
The hands of time have
stopped for us.

It is too late to turn
back the clock.
For a while we had
great fun.
But the ticking clock
marked the denouement
of our time together.

Premium MemberSee There Marches Orion

See there marches Orion
   With Sirius close at his feet
Tarrying not long in the air
   To begin the midnight hunt. 

His quickened breath congeals –
   His boots crunch the fallen snow –
His eyes attempt to discern
   Between tree and furtive shadow.

Mark the occasion and time

Time marches on but the story doesn't change.
Innocent lives being taken by a person whose deranged..
Last weekend in Pa. it was our state police, one is still
critical, and the other is now  deceased..
The unstable shooter is also now gone.
Will this ever stop? What keeps going so wrong?
This tragic story truly rings home for me.

Time Marches On

Time Marches On

Time marches on,
but things can change.
The flow of life is the same,
but we can spin away.

Find a place to abide;
a life to call your own.
Find a way to live;
a way to feel alive.

All the road blocks,
will guide your way.
Till you are strong enough,
to crush them all.

That path of least resistance,
is how the water

Premium MemberTime Marches On

Eye catching patterns in colourful squares 
Were carefully stitched by gifted old hands

Commissioned for years to sew her fine quilts,
Her quilting designs were sought through the lands

Each blanket exquisite and full of old charm
All labours of love made at home on her farm

But time marches on and her eyes had grown tired 
And at ninety

Our Valiant Virtuoso Marches On

He is marvelous when it comes to issues of development.
He has been named the nation`s hottest footballer at the moment.
 
In the field of play he outshines, dazzles and dribbles past opponents.
An inspiration, through his foundation, he pays school fees for students.

A philanthropic star midfielder who dribbled past poverty to prosperity. 
A visionary, his academy is

Death Marches On As Life Merely Follows

Death is not cruel.
Its hands, untouched by prejudice,
Welcome each and all at the behest of Time.
For Time, Death's Companion, 
Compels us to accept Death's embrace,
And daily reminds us of its eventuality.
We may shout, cry, rebel, or simply turn away,
Believing that which covets our lives is unscrupulous.
It is life which leads us to this abhorrence.

The Dark Marches In

Sorrow comes as the night sets in,
For tonight there are no stars.
Can we let the darkness win?

Death’s soldiers come marching in,
Collecting the gifts from Life.
Sorrow comes as the night sets in.

Why don’t we just give in?
The dark is always their.
Can we let the darkness win?

People have tried to fight Life’s twin,
But life betrays all to

On and on day marches on 
until the sun is nearly gone 
Yes the battle is always won 
I know cuz when day is done 
moon puts her crescent on 
and proffers up, the sun.

Time marches on

Vs 1
I tried to escape the truth...
Tried to fight the fleeing- strength of my youth
Never thought I would succumb...
To the incessant, beating of the drum

Bridge
The rug was pulled out from under my feet
but, I'll keep on dancing 'til there's no more beat
Shook the foundations of all I believe,
but I'll do my best 'til

Premium MemberMy Muse Marches Out Lines of Poems

Poems tiptoe into my dreams and fill up all my sleeping space
Thoughts of mythical creatures, maybe a wonderful brilliant thing
They are swirling and twirling, each in own unique place.
Without any thought of my well-being, they banter and they brace.
Throwing out a plethora of inane ideas, without any obvious taste or grace.
Subliminal faerie clips, 
float into

Time Marches Forward

I want to be as steadfast as time,
Watch how she always marches forward,
Trip her, she won’t falter,
Push her, she won’t alter

But turn her around quick, and watch her,
see how only forward she goes,
notice how she doesn’t know
she’s stepping back on her echoes

Stomping on our days,
Stomping on our stars,
Stomping on our earth,
Stomping on our atoms,
Stomping on
