Time … time?
who needs time
when I’ve got my mind
running circles before the sun comes up –
it’s just me and the moon
and the cat, if you count living things that crawl into your thoughts,
and all that silence makes for a canvass full of nothingness
just waiting for words.
I come here looking for images
only to find letters
so I close my eyes
and concentrate on time.

Somewhere upstairs,
(13 steps)
There is a shirt
(Many shirts)
That are in need of attention
(Dirty shirts)
Not tonight.
But this poem
(Short poem)
Got written,
Instead.
Tick, tock.
Drip, drop.
It’s all the same
when the washer overflows
and steals spring break.
Cry, scream.
Laugh, giggle.
At least the floors are clean.
Dishes to do,
Reflections to ponder,
Hours so few,
Questions to wonder,
Diiner to cook
Email to read
Do have time for a book
Groceries I need
Laundry to fold
Lessons to write
A baby to hold
No wonder I am exhausted at night
Time
Time … time?

Ben Greys last blog post..An Online Identity Crisis of Sorts
Minutes, seconds, hours
Time so present but so elusive
So quick to move forward and never return
My whole being cries out
Carpe Diem
And I know I must
Because I am the master of my time
Without time for a poem
Our minds will stop growin’
The rub, while not right,
Is that even to write
Doesn’t stop time a goin’

What could be better?

Maria Monacos last blog post..What does educating for the 21st century mean?
Time
A shooting star.
Did you stop to enjoy it?
If not,
Was it ever really there?
Kelly Hiness last blog post..Cool Tools 6
If words would arrange themselves on the page
Mary Poppins toy soliders
Dutifully responding to a sharp hand clap
I would have plenty of time
But the soldiers have gone AWOL
Broken Vietnam vets
Commanding them is arduous
I have all the time in the world and none at all

Do have time for a book
Groceries I need
Laundry to fold
Lessons to write
A baby to hold
No wonder I am exhausted at night
ask me
what is time
and I say
I know
ask me to say what time is
and I say
I know
I don’t know

In less time than it takes to say the word
A whole universe came into being.
