The Passage of Time

A tick that marks each moment

By Simon AbiloguPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

The passage of time is a river

A flow that never stops or slows

It carries us along with its current

From the source to the sea it goes

The passage of time is a clock

A tick that marks each moment and hour

It reminds us of our limits and deadlines

From the dawn to the dusk it towers

The passage of time is a mirror

A reflection that shows our changes and scars

It reveals our growth and our aging

From the youth to the old it charts

The passage of time is a teacher

A lesson that teaches us wisdom and grace

It helps us to appreciate and cherish

From the past to the present to the future it traces
