CATCH IT IF YOU CAN

 

 

Time is so elusive, catch it if you can.

 

With speed - it is amazing, how it uses up the man.

 

One day its time to walk, another time to run,

 

But as minutes stretch beyond us,

 

The years leave much undone.

 

Strangely when it hangs around, we do too, I fear

We're just beyond the datum time

 and the end is drawing near.

The one who drew the clock face, had humour on his mind,

He somewhere hid the 'life-time' hand ... in a place I cannot find.

As I said to Sacha, Tony, we frequently only get one chance at anything, so time and life should be used wisely, for if we miss it, it may be gone for good,.. 

thanks for reading and your friendship all this time... (I found Zydha's Place which David copied for me way back then) and copies from childhood writes and other varied times worth remembering for they make me who I am today, Zy
