Perchance to binge on Earthly time

A thought we humans find sublime

Still, we worry, this we must endure

A life that ends, of this we’re sure

Why rush, to get through every day

Those wasted hours, we threw away

Perhaps we need to slow it down

Take time to breathe, instead of drown

In things, that aren’t worth a dime

One’s that have no reason, nor rhyme

Take heed of this, I must implore

Before Heaven opens its only door

Her photograph, faded, sepia tones

A rose, shriveled, now brittle and dry

Memories of her many loving ways

Made it harder to say goodbye

Time goes by much too quickly

In a blink of an eye, she was gone

Always the blossom, in my garden of life

Now the flowers are wilted and drawn

To have her plant just one more seed

I’d give anything, to let her know

That she is the reason I am me

From her love I’ve continued to grow

 

In loving memory of my grandmother, Nana Rose (June 1973) I love you  and miss you more each day.   ❤

Too easily, it slips on by
Just like that, it’s gone

Thinking I could get some sleep
Then suddenly, it’s dawn

It seems I’ve lost an hour
Just like that, it disappeared

One minute is was two AM
The next, it felt so weird

Sixty minutes passed me by
And all I did was blink

In my opinion, daylight savings
Does nothing more than stink!

Assuming she had all the time in the world
And life’s rules did not apply to her

She was frivolous, wasting every chance
As if minutes lost, could once again occur

Seconds, ticking ever so quickly, racing
Passing through the day, she didn’t notice

She spent her life, never seeing tomorrow
So completely blind, and out of focus

And when her time had passed her by
Still, she cared not for what she had lost

She wouldn’t believe she had no time left
She’d simply beg for more, no matter the cost

There was a time
Before time existed
When the world
Found love, instead
Of moments, twisted

There was a time
Before time slipped by
Carelessly, forgotten
Trying to stop it
Turning back, but why?

There was a time
Before the end of time
Where humans cried
As the planet lay wasted
Such a terrible crime…
