...here is what you can expect
From Isaac Asimov's Book of Science and Nature Quotations, 1988
S ands slip through the hourglass fast
T ime marches on without a pause to last
E ach moment speeds by in a hurry to go
P ast slips into future and leaves us below
H ow quickly our lives and days disappear
E ver moving us closer to endings so near
N ow speeds the present on wings light as air
K eeping appointed with seasons that bear
A way what has been and bringing what's new
S o nothing stands still life's currents flow through
T he tides of existence relentlessly roll
E ach wave breaks upon minutes that toll
R emain here a little longer.
PS: Not good with poetry, but decided to give it a try.
That's an honor and echoes my latest post: https://open.substack.com/pub/stephenkastner/p/take-me-to-the-river
