The Gift Of Time

Time is a gift. 

Today is a package given by time--the beautiful present.

The present was in the past seen as future, and with every 

passing seconds, gradually evolved to what we now experience.

Strides of second...

Bigger strides of minutes and hours--time makes gains

and sometimes not without challenging circumstances

Time is King.

We hope in it for the best in future, if our present

is not a gift we desire.

"Only time will tell" we profess

We look to this ageing friend and father.

An Old friend indeed, boasting of more years

than anyone that has ever lived.

Time is never an object of love or hate

It just is a conduit that carries a myriad of events and 

activities.

Although it sure do seem that time will last forever.

It is just an ageing buddy who'll eventually stop breathing.

At that point we would swim into what was before time stepped in.

We would then fully understand and then salute the one 

on whom time depends and draws sustenance

As we go on a cruise in time's ride

It sure would be only wise to at least take a quick glance

at who's on the wheels-- the one who orders time's line of direction

He just might capture our full attention.
