Time

Time sweet time

The ever flowing stream

The straight and narrow never ceasing line

Sweet moments glitter in the past

New memories that will not last

History is long ago

The future we have yet to know

The present is an instant long

An instant later it is gone

The future becomes present as the present becomes past

Nothing of time can we grasp

Except that soon

At a time we do not see

Time will be taken

From you and me.

I love this one. It's smooth enough to read quickly but deep enough to think about & take time with as well. I think a reader can get what they want and will allow themselves to out of this poem & the possibilities for a mind to wander on each couple of lines are immense.

Thank you for reading, I'm glad you liked it. I always like to make my poems easy to understand yet deeper than what you see so I'm glad you saw that. ^^

This is a great poem. Time is an interesting topic to begin with, and you do a good job of making the poem flow like time itself. Keep it up!
