Fleeting

Fleeting

A Poem by Tabitha Dings

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sands of precious time

    Shifting and slipping between my toes

        Not one grain remaining in one place

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

        In constant motion

    Even when it all appears quite calm

Seconds fleeing, never to return
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love this analogy, its picture is clear, and its message a nagging reminder of past wasted life and our tentative grasp on what's left. Well written and received.
