a poem about the mad rush life has become and how we need to stop and smell the roses!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  THE TIDE OF TIME


The clock ticks away
We all keep trying to match its pace;
Like a tide in which we sway
It’s the reason behind this rat race.

Too much to do
Too little time to spare;
Too many people to woo
Too little time to care.

It’s a mad rush all around us
Everyone trying to be the best;
I don’t know why all this fuss
What is it that we want to test?

Hours merge into days and weeks
All around us life moves on;
We’re too busy for the meadows or the creeks
Too soon it will be all gone!
