Time

Oh the wonders of time

No one really gives it an eye

aside from a random glance at thier watch

No one really gives it a spot

Others take it with speed

And circle the clock indeed

To children it doesn't exsist

And to the elders

needing to slow it does

To I

Me has no time

volleyball

softball

foriegn countries

and friends

time knows none of these

giving me the cold shoulder

of unbarrowed time

Oh

I wish it lasted longer

longer being a larger sum of time

shorter being the small end of the stick

as well as the time i have to give
