Gather the time

Still working on this.

Seize the moments
Gather the time
Store it in a bank.

For when you've reached an age,
That months become days,
and people, have become too few.

Then you'll believe,
That in these times you need
An extra minute or two.

Time goes by quickly when you having fun....so, keep some for when you age, then life slows down, counting the minutes, maybe needing a few more...friends pass and loneliness sets in....
A very true comment, and sad as well,....nicely written
Warmly, B

Strong and wise words shared Mansfield. In a world. Where we waste everything. Maybe we need to save something? Old world believed in saving for a rainy day. New world. Spend everything and hope for more. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

I didn't mean to publish that, was still working on it. Hopefully it's better now. Thank you for reading

You are welcome my friend.

That extra time could brighten or save a moment of pleasure, leisure - or something or someone to treasure rather than worry 'bout the negative.
