How do we control Time?
Time is invincible
Time is unreliable
Time! Time!
There is not enough of it!
For we all forget
The true meaning of life
But most of us never realize
because we run out of Time!

WE CAN ONLY APPRECIATE TIME . IF WE LIVE EVERY SECOND AS IF IT WERE OUR LAST , DON'T HAVE ANY .. ''OH I WISH I'D DONE THAT'' REGRETS WHEN THE TIME COMES .
WELL WRITTEN ,

Zia - Very nice! Time seems to be a problem for me these days. It's always slipping away before I know it. Great poem. @~ Rose

It is sad that days seem to go by so fast I wish the hours were so much longer so I could accomplish more. Another good outlook as we do all not have enough time. Well maybe we have enough but not as much as we had wanted. Cheers

ha, this made me smile. i like it, i like that it ends quickly, as if the verse itself ran out of time. super sweet!!

Agreeing with solafidas, the poem seems to run out of time itself, which makes it really effective :) it made me smile at the end because this technique is soo funny in your poem!
Short and snappy, but says it all, thumbs up from me :D
Keep going!!

Hello Zia,
Sorry and forgive for the long reply! You stated that poetry is your passion. I think it is and should always remain so. "Time" was such a little poem but, with big meaning and so very thought provoking.
"Time is of the essence", as it is said. Probaly, in my opinion, one of the most thought about and ruling factors of our daily lives, for everything that we do or not do is in someway related to time. People have written essays, poems, stories, made movies, and have thought about and experimented with ways to prolong or reverse their time on earth or even going forward in time.
When we are young we all think and I mean everybody, thinks that they have all the time in the world but, the older you get and again I mean everybody, we all relize that there is just not enough of it. So, we must use and give our time wisely!
Sometimes the simple poems are the best ones!
