At Six O'Clock

I ponder many thoughts,

at six o’clock.

It is when I hear the sound

of a tick-tock.

Each moment, each beat,

the hum drum ba-dum

of a sound, ever so sweet.

The trickling waters

of time’s flow,

through and through,

as they align

me to you.

Its sound is delicate,

as it resonates art.

And its elegance

portrays that, of a

beating heart.

I find myself in awe,

at the hourglass

upon an old, dusty shelf,

that ticks away

the rest of my wealth.

At six o’clock,

I am here, upon this rock,

waiting... waiting...

for your heart,

...to sing.

One last time,

so that I can,

forever,

call you mine.

As we are now...

...lost in endless

time.

Very beautifully written, dearest friend. Great use of words and rhyming. The last three stanzas give the poem a bit of a twist. Thank you for sharing. Happy holidays and happy writing! :) - CG

A very nice rhyming write. Valentine

[Mercy Fae]

The comparisons in this are very clever. The last three stanzas change the mood and add a stronger sense of emotion to the entire poem.

Very well written poem. The short lines add a feeling of time ticking by.
