Time

Yellow Butterfly

Time is ticking fast...

Before you know it, it's past...

Trying to fit everything in...

Before it's too late, where to begin...

Always working with little time to play...

Before you know it, it's another day...

Time is ticking, don't watch it sail by...

Before you know it, your asking yourself.. Why?

Time is ticking, do you get me now...

 

Before you know it, your still asking yourself.. How?

Time is ticking and there is only one thing to do...

Enjoy every second of it because you can never UNDO!

very good. using the sense of hearing makes it easier to imagine a little old fashioned clock sitting on a desk. they rhyme is good as well though on the last 3 lines the rhyme drops and they seem a bit out of place. but over all a very good poem especially for someone who doesn't consider themselves a writer.

One word..... Beautiful!!!
It had a silent beauty of truth and facts. Displaying a universal truth in such a enchanted manner. Great job.... Nicely done.

Best poem I've read today.

I liked the message of the poem. This is so true, time is absolutely gold, so we should treasure every minute of it. I love the rhymes, and it's got a good flow to it. Simple and straightforward. Great write. :)

Simply stated but brilliant all the same. I like this tribute to living life to the fullest, and the rhyme scheme suits it well. Great piece and look forward to reading more!

A fine write for your first one here at Writers Cafe. Thoughtful and well worded. Not too long, but not too short as well, just a good introduction to you and your work!
