Time

How does one make time?

We can’t trade it in like we do for money

Is time money?

I’ve heard it said time is life

To have more of both – wouldn’t that be nice?

You can’t put it in a jar

It eludes us all in the end

What is the best way for one to spend?

Minutes are tokens

Hours – gold

Years are presents

They unwrap

Everyone’s getting old

Time is a seed, it’s a word

It’s a book, a conversation, a prayer

It’s something we all need

But we all too soon learn that it’s not there

Time is a magazine

For a brief moment, who is the queen?

Each heartbeat is a clock hand’s tick

Time is then isn’t

Hold it while you can – though that is a delusion – at least for anything outside of those moment

It is gone

And unknown for tomorrow

Out before you know it
