Premium Member Time Eludes Me

It’s true that time waits for no man,
It certainly manages to elude me ...
 One minute things look way off in the future,
The next they are out of reach in the past,
When you think that it’s passing slowly,
You’ll find, that it’s actually travelling fast.

Get Going

Get up. Get out. Get going.
Time waits for no man.
Get up. Get out. Get going.
Just do it. Do what you can.

And when you DO get going,
   and get up off the couch,
   you'll find you just might start to lose
   that thing you've got...
   ... that pouch.

Time

There is a time to listen
There is a time to care
There is s time to share
There is a time for sorrow
There is a time for joy
There is a time to believe in oneself
There is a time for love ones near and far
Let you be their star
Time waits for no man, women or child 
so cherish time and make it worthwhile.

A Call To Arms

*STOP*

Turn off your television set
This is not a test
What have you done up until today to better our existence
What do you have to say
Have you really done your part,  or
have you yet to start
Time waits for no man
It's not to late
I’ve grabbed my pen
What weapon will you choose
PLEASE
Take your shot
Or we all lose

‘Tis true, time waits for no man, but moves swiftly along
     Age to eon, in big laps or small, time is never retrievable
          Once gone it can never be recaptured, even in song
               Moving inexorably forward into realms unbelievable.

Look Deep

look deep
 stand still & repeat
 we got dancing feet
 I time to meet & greet
 the underscore read
 bargain basement heads
 face filled with lead

 the verge of lying dead
 sometimes on sometimes not
 we beg and borrow a lot
 time is on our side
 yet time waits for no man
 do you all understand
 falling apart in my hand
 you can be a better man
 living in a far away land

 hopefully someday all will understand

Time

Time waits for no man
Good news you're the driver of its van

Time is money
Good news you're the manager in its bank

Time flies
Good news you're the pilot

Time is precious
Good news you own its treasury

Procrastination is the thief of time 
Good news you're an officer of the law

Do not put the watch around your waist
I mean don't waste your time, it's wrong.
Put it around your wrist,
Right where it belongs.
     ...Stranja
