Poem: Time

Years can pass
Days fly by
Minutes just tick away
But time has a way of healing
Making what was old new again
Opening one’s mind to new
Ideas and concepts
Closing old wounds
Sometimes even making one
Mature and see the
World and past mistakes
In a different light

Time can fuel the longing
In one’s heart and in one’s soul
Making you wait for what you
Really want, what you really need
It wants you to learn what is being taught
Remember what you have done and seen
Try not to repeat
Mistakes made, time to reflect

Dangling a carrot in your face
Knowing you want it
You reach but you must wait
Until the right time
Until it is right for you to
Grab the prize

Time taking your hand and
Leading you
Down its road
