“ A Tear ” ~ too many ~

 

I’ve caused a tear

Or two, too many,

Thru all the years

Or most of every,

Admittedly clear

Be short of reason,

Thus sorry pleas

Not worth a penny

Nor a dime,

Save every time

There be sadness

Sure to follow,

Mostly mine!

 

“ Wanting ” ~ to hold back time ~

I watch it seems

Days pass

Mostly unseen,

And thus so fast,

Has me want find

Time made to last,

Short of recycling

Fallow idled past,

Thus to be used

Until we so design,

To hold back time!
