Opening time

 

Placed in a plastic tub for fear of been rotten

To be opened at a time when near forgotten

Time stamped and put away

Only to be opened some distant day

 

All manner of things from present times

Stories and poems, some that rhymed

Photographs of present days

Just to show if things have change in any ways

 

But fixed inside firmly on the lid

So out of view it would not have slid

A thing of today in common use

Refreshing  and not used for abuse

 

For as I said fixed firmly inside of the lid

I tell you this, I do not kid

Perhaps it may make some people think

A tea bag, so on me they could have a drink

Time is the most precious thing we have, but we are the poorer if we can't spend a little time on a friend

Great play with words, Tony, this is really fun,


how wonderful if this was 'the true flavour' of all that had gone before, 

excellent rhyming, Zy

Great idea Tony, let's hope there's some water still around when they open it, whenever that might be!
