TIME

Time!

Is one thing that is popularly known?

But yet so enigma to so many

Time!

So easy to describe and explain

But yet so hard to comprehend

Time!

So easy to fix and set at any season by everybody

But yet so hard to follow up

Time!

Is a father to strictness and discipline?

Yet has no room for laziness and idleness

Time!

Only moves with patience, perseverance and endurance

It may seem like at times that the journey

Is still young and long

But indeed there is no journey

But only the victory of the racers

Accolade and warmth embraces

Blasting the air, tightening the atmosphere

With fulfillment, satisfaction and long life

Accompanied with jolly prosperity

Time!

Can be swift that if not well used

And wisely spent ends in stupor and soliloquy

Spending it lavishly is a rear luxury to get

Time!

Is a friend to the great and mighty?

For they depend on it for their survivor

Take away time and the world is meaningless

Time!

Waits for no one for it has no friend

It is the harbinger of good wealth

Is a friend of those that works with it

And even move ahead of it
