How quickly

time passes,

hour by hour,

minutes fly.

and life with it.

Aging in years,

losing the seconds, in

those fleeting moments,

carelessly spent,

until the clock stops,

and time stands still.

As do I

With each flickering flame, my years unfold

Tapering down, leaving days of untold

Dripping memories, of past events

Happier times, still I’m not quite content

Candelabra in hand, a welcoming light

The fire, still burning, with no end in sight

Celebrating the day, reaching for more

Wondering what this life has in store

As closer to Halloween, comes the time

Knowing I still haven’t yet reached my prime

So, I’ll blow out the candles, let the wax seal my fate

On this day in October, 2016, twenty-eight

 

In case you haven’t figured it out, today is my birthday.  I am taking the day to relax and enjoy.  I’ll be sure to save you some cake  🙂
