A Book of Time

A Book of Time

What a wonder...Time.

It moves at will

and shocks us when

it's standing still.

Each day

Happy or sad

Good or bad

Layers the pages

Of memories had.

As you near the end

and lessons one by one

Make sense

And now it's fun

To flip the pages

Like a mischievous elf

and laugh at self.

Oh Book of Time

Thank you for all the days

The weeks, the years

In gratitude

I shed loves tears.
