Time is like the clouds above
They arrive and then they go~
Endless thus to follow them
And they their moments know~
Time is like the smallest waves
That caress the shore and sand~
Each one being and then no more
A moment short beautiful and grand~
Time is like a butterfly
It's with us for just awhile~
Then it too becomes the past
Leaving a memory and hopefully a smile~
Time is like the smallest flower wild
It comes and then it goes away~
Others take it's place all the while
To beautify during their stay~
Time is like the very air we breath
Though so many do not appreciate~
Each and every breath we breath
Till it too is no more and then too late~
