time moves
so quickly
and I wonder…
where does it go?
children growing,
seasons changing,
life.
moving rapidly
into the future
one moment passes into
the next
one minute, into an hour
an hour into a day
a day into a month
a month into
a year…
gone bye.
again and again
and through the seasons
through time traveling
past conceivable notion,
I still find it hard to step back
and watch time slipping past
to stand still
as life
moves quickly
beyond measure
comprehension,
no time
to look back
nor forward
it’s this moment
moving quickly
that my mind is rapid
fluttering as the hummingbird flurry
a ripple in the waves
losing ones reflection
lost in the turmoil
compounded by the immeasurable
timing
of time slipping away
through pursed lips dried,
attempting to sip water through
fine fingers
it slides…
away
left
hungering for a time
when life did not run
faster then my legs could move,
when memories
served more of a purpose than
a simple snap shot
to capture the moment
the course of time
bewildered,
daunted…
I’ll rise for air
at once
gasping
after this drought
of a swim
through time
languidly embracing the moments
of which can so easily
be forgotten
remember still,
the person I am
the person in control,
not that
of time
