Everything is moving way too fast
The day that has just begun
Is over in a second flat

Not enough time
To do what I please
Too much work layed at my feet
Leisure can't be described
Because I've forgoten what it feels like
To have nothing to do.

Tell me, who takes the hours
And turns them to minutes
Then, those to seconds
Then, seconds gone
No time left

Everything seems to be moving
At a pace that's much too quick
A day over in a split second
Faster than an eye lash blink



 Devotion

The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to the ocean-
Holding the curve of one position,
Counting an endless repetiton.

-Robert Frost

Joy,
this is great...I feel like this too...we blink and the time has slipped by...like when I'm in here reading all the amazing poetry and the next thing I know its dark, or midnight...(smile)take care janet marie

 Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-
remain the most beautiful words ever heard.

All too true!  I can't believe it's February already!!  

 Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.

It is amazing how quickly it goes by. I enjoyed this very much and felt it through and through. Great work Joy!

 Something has to change. An undeniable dilemma. But I am not a burden anyone should bear.

Thanks.  This was just a quickie I had to do.  Because the expression, "time flies" couldn't be more true right now!
