Time is so precious
And it passes so fast
Seems like before you know it
The future has become the past
Time cannot be controlled
There’s no way to slow it down
All you can do is make the most of it
While the clock keeps going round
Some waste time worrying
About not having enough
While some waste time
Simply trying to do to much
Time well spent
Is as valuable as gold
Once it’s gone you’ll never get it back
Except in your memories of old
So often we overlook
When the time is right
To cherish the moments
Until they’re clearly out of sight
Money and possessions
Can never take the place
Of being there for a “first step”
Or sharing the smile on a childs face
You cannot put a price
On time spent together
With the one you’ve pledged your love
With the promises of forever
In our search for a treasure
I can tell you what’s mine
It’s the most precious to behold
It’s the treasure of TIME!

I'm really impressed of how many aphorisms one can find in the words of "nobodys"
and so many stupid quotes from celebrities are to often cited...
I like that one
Hope you'll find always time to give us more of your poems,
peace
