The Passage Of Time Poem by Lee Hutsby

The passage of time goes slowly by,
for others can go the speed of light,
whatever your life might have been,
who knows of the wonders you may have seen,
started as a baby you could not talk,
you crawled around then began to walk,
you started nursery before long it was school,
you had you first kiss, then your first fall,
you bumped your head, you banged you toe,
you made new friends, you made some foes,
you started to wear really cool clothes,
you were happy sometimes others you were sad,
sometimes you wanted mum others your dad,
you started your first day at your job,
you got your first car crashed it then sobbed,
you had a few beers you had some wine,
sometimes you cried, sometimes you were fine,
you had a few partners until the day came,
you got married had children and your new life began,
your children all grown up and leaving home,
starting a new life very close to your own,
first comes the husband forward slash wife,
then your grandchildren another cycle of life,
you now starting to slow down and relax,
you might move into a retirement flat,
waiting for a visitor anyone will do,
to tell your life story through and through,
your day finally comes after many long years,
time to meet your maker come now dry those tears...................
