Time held captive
by history books
calendars and clocks,
claimed by inflated egos
as their golden eras
of personal achievement.
Time struggles
to be recognized
as a flowing stream
where denizens of the world
step in and step out
leaving it unlabelled, undefined.
A child waits for
liberation of time
to let the fairies
step out of stories
making pure joy
evergreen, contemporary.

We do capture the past don’t we but the present and future allude us so I think we enjoy what we have as we don’t get a second time, do we.

It is a constant state of transition. The present moment will become the past, and we will be living future as the present. Time management is a myth. It is only priority management.
