Premium Member A Journey Through Time
I left my past in all its fullness, thinking my life was almost complete. Then the present was upon me, like a flower’s fragrance, it was so sweet. I thought back to the past, a mere seed; yes, it must have been. For the present was surely, slowly growing within. In a dream my present became my future, my...

The weight of time
The Weight of Time Time moves like a quiet tide, softly stealing what once was mine. Faces blur, voices fade, memories drift like autumn leaves. The clock hands never pause, never ask if I’m ready or not. They just keep turning, pulling me forward, leaving the past behind. I reach for moments slipping away, but time is a river, and I am the shore. Watching, waiting,...

Sense of Time
Evolution gave humans a present which appears (on first glance) to be pleasant. We envision the past and the future — so vast. But this gift keeps our minds off the present....

No Time Like the Present
All the time I've wished away I'd wish to have it back today 'Not good enough' it seemed to be When it was there surrounding me Wish it away, and wish it back There always seems to be some lack Not with the present day content The 'here and now' we do resent The good old days I'd have again, They were the 'now'...

Premium Member There Is No Time Like the Present
There is no time like the present The only time you can embrace moments lived in absolute grace There is no time like the present, Not be wasted in discontent and lament. With alpine mountains saluting you, vibrant seasons and countless vivid hues, Nature as if celebrates every minute, why not honour the vast beyond compute ? Digging the past and stay aghast, setting...

How she rests on grasses from a jungle Tulips and pines of forest 'round her shed; A hand exploring time's precious compass With graced arms afloat, never way ahead. Her bay cradles shelled rock that lazes by This pure moment holding an endless sea… Above, the jiggled sound of breakers glide When thrushes arrange music endlessly. Oh, to pause along slant of...

There Is No Time Like the Present
Time present will be time yesterday Time present will lead to time tomorrow While standing on the one-time-only bridge Can we afford to look the other way No way Now that time is in the pink hug Melting red heat in my fountain How come you raise past and future In spite of the heavenly bliss we reap No way The tree last Tuesday was...

No Time Like the Present--Cliches Contest
No Time Like The Present (Cliches Contest) I need to get out of this place! So very tired of everyone's bromidic rhetoric. It's sickening... The continuous chatter of a dramatic existence. It's sickening... Who are these people anyways? Shhhh! I hear my mother whispering some old cliché, so far away, "There is no time like the present", she says, and...

No Time Like the Present
There’s no stopping tomorrow from becoming today So pack up your wishes, just put them away Now is the time to do all that you’ve dreamed Start acting on wishes and all of your schemes Waste not a moment as time goes so fast Count on each second to make your time last Be everything you have always wanted to be Now...

Premium Member No Time Like the Present
The past is gone,the future yet to come. Our heartbeat has this moment only to engage with In the blind rhythm of life. Why fret about about what lies ahead Or regret what we have done? In vain ,we bury ourselves In the living tomb of unseeing nostalgia Or in the airy castles of prized projects, Illusions in which we suffocate. Seize the moment, Breathe...
