Time Flies By
April 18, 2018
I tried to catch Time
but like a butterfly, it fluttered away
so I sat in the dimming sunlight
and watched it fade to grey
For Time slipped through my fingers,
and began to fly around
It flew past my nursery
and landed on caps and gowns
It blew past the university
and though the church, it zipped
It landed on the veil
then suddenly, Time tripped
Time showed me the unfamiliar
sounds of “Im sorry for your loss”
Then Time showed the final resting place
and suddenly, time stopped.
