TIME EMERGES FROM MY ARCHIVES
Value Time
Time is that something
man has created
by inventing a clock
to track the motion
of the sun
but all of us
fall short of it mostly
we all simply
whine, go here and there
to dance and dine
then we define
time yours you spent
money mine
now for your smaller pleasures
I have none
I am leaving
for you I have
just no more of my
invaluable time

Yes ..
for sure, time is truly what we fall short of! Despite that man invented it as a clock for creating time of his own yet we don't purposely maintain it to a standard.
So, we should manage our time effectively and create a life time schedule.

Reminds me of a quote from.....I think Thomas Jefferson :
If you value life waste not time for time is the stuff life is made of. Good one loved

Time is something that eludes me, I'm always losing track of it! I really liked these lines:
