That time is precious is a truth but let me sweeten it’s myth

Time

When do we find the time?
Time to love time to seek?
Will we meet each other at the creak?
Where would we go, how would we know?
Time is precious, time is a treat.


Premium Member Stolen Time

Any sum of time we spent lamenting over past failures,

Is precious time that is stolen from our future successes!

Precious Time

Time is precious and a luxury,
It is rare to buy anywhere,the time,
Every person given,equal quota of time,
If a person spends,his time over you,
Honor this person weighing high!

Wasting the Clock

Taking into mind 
All these beautiful lines
Just to waste my precious time
Sitting here is
Not enough
I'm not going 
To just do "stuff"
The time is ticking
Way too slow 
Why cant 
I just 
Go?

Listen to poem:
sun rises followed by a sunset
one then another and another

time slips through our fingers
sand through the hourglass

vanishing irretrievably
precious, precious time

The time seemed to stop
but it kept on moving,
one year after the other...

I am glad that the time we had
always stays year after year,
but I wish we had more of that precious time.
I miss you, Dad!

Happiness

When I started to write this rhyme
I thought that this very instant
Was my own, precious time
My presaged, peculiar moment
Maybe I was in my prime
Perhaps it was my promised minute
But the feeling was so sublime
That I would remember it forever

Beauty

Ladies
Of an age
Take up
All my time
it seems

Precious time
I give
Sometimes more
Or less

Pale blue eyes
Or brown
Matters not

Beauty -
Share with me

Take me home

Splash 
Into 
Cool water
Refreshing time
Watermelon treats
Bright fireworks burst into
Dances under the moonlight
Days filled with beach activities
Sharing an icecream visit with friends
Fun in the sun, precious time with loved ones

the sky turns pale blue
    above horizon brushed pink
          fallen moments shine
      I am struck by what I think 
   where did the precious time go?

Premium Member A New Day

The sun rises, the birds wake.
The day begins so smoothly.
Appreciate this precious time.
A few hours into this day
All becomes jumbled with the rest.
No one has their own thoughts,
Until the next waking day,
When
For a short while, the world is yours.

Always Find a Way To Occupy Yourself

Always find a way to occupy yourself 
Do not waste precious time
Get at it and go with the flow 
Things will change in the blink of an eye 
With each day that passes 
There is something for you to learn
Let those lessons teach you 
So that way you can earn

The Devastating Whim

You were like a queen
Of a fairy tale
Looking for a king
To love and feel well
I was a poor guy
But fell in love with you
I waited for you
To come and love me too
I killed my precious time
Dreaming fruitless dream
Now I repent for that
Devastating whim

Time For Reflection

Time for reflection

May I not rue, when life draws to an end,
Invidious, mean words which bring distress
Nor sigh, that precious time I did misspend
On frivolous pursuits of happiness.
Rather let warm benevolence hold sway
And solomonic wisdom guide my way.

Listen to poem:
The Black Monolith
David J Walker

Its not just another days 
Insanity 
	Predictable 
Excusable 
	Lost reality

A commonality 
Of precious time tossed

The clocks chime 
Is just another number
Once lost

Twice added 
to the darque vapor
Of the past

Why Should She Stay

Why should she stay 
Look at the way how you treated her 
She gave you everything 
But, you were insincere 
You never showed her any appreciation 
All you did was waste precious time 
Dissension has reared its ugly head 
There is nothing but dark clouds in the sky
