Time Flies (Again)

By Marc Gilbert ¶ Posted in Original Poems ¶ Tagged Epigram, lyrical, Meter, poem, poetry ¶ 1 Reply

Niggles and nags make for hours unending,
years appear moments that stealthily flee,
squandering days unaware of the spending,
slow to discover that no time is free.

C Student

A slothful student
spent her studies
listening to birds.

The music stopped
once forced to learn
to name the notes she’d heard.

“Who are they?”, we dare not answer,
they and we are much the same,
we, a name for claiming credit,
they, for when assigning blame.

While experts in nothing
were jousting with words
the wind whispered something
and nobody heard.

Another Time

Time’s relevance, finite:
no river,
but chain;
Eventful reactions,
each ending
the same.
