Tock

Tick tick
goes the clock
the seconds passing me by

tick tock
slips the time
as I go counting the days.

Tick tock
run li'l rabbit run!
I'll catch you one of these days

tick tock
the seasons change
but I'm still on your trail

tick tock
years go by
I've still got you on my mind.

Tick tock
time flies by
I've pinned you, trapped you, caught you, now I know you're mine.

Tick tock
goes the clock
who knew I couldn't tame you?

[Kim's Poems]

very rhymatic, I love it,
awesome writing!

[Incendiary Grievances]

You took one of the most malleable and difficult to describe essences on earth--time--and explained its effect on us perfectly. The way we try desperately to tame it, to escape it, to change it, and never can.

This is truly wonderful. The poem flows, time goes on, and your brilliance prevails.

[An owl on the moon]

Time flies by at the speed of life... and your words rhythmically dance to the tune of days... Profound and mythic...

[bookworm]

Its like a modern day version of Shakespeare's Taming of The Shrew....but with the tick tocking of E.A.P....

I like...
