There is Time

Something in the Bible similar to this

A time to stop struggling,
A time to go to bed.
A time to look to the heavens,
And a time to be fed

A time before cell phones,
A time when we could trust.
A time for reckless abandon,
And a time for lust.

A time to be civil,
A time for unrest
A time to bathe,
And a time to nest.

A time to be right
A time to be wrong
Time to be happy
Time for a song.

A time for celebration
A time for somber reflection
A time to turn the other cheek
And a time for retaliation.

A time for extravagance,
A time for thrift
A time to mourn
Amd a time to drift.

Time to take life
In great big strides
Time for everything,
This life provides.

This rhyming piece fair trips along as it shows the reader the different faces/options that can be followed.

Fantastic work. There is a time for everything.

This poem speaks to me about the preciousness of time. A lesson in not wasting it. Using it wisely. Time for everything maybe, but somethings are so deserving of our time while others aren’t. We have one life, make it count. Make it a life well lived. Good to read you DM. First to arrive. I’m sure others will have lots more to say.
