Here and Now (Poem)

Updated: Jan 13

Tick tock, tick tock

Nobody can stop the clock

Tick tock, tick tock…

Summer daze, endless haze

Walking hand in hand

Feet in the sand, even though, you know

My mind never wanders to where the waters saunter

Approaching the expiration date on youthful resilience

Making promises and wishful plans

To be lived out in another lifetime, perhaps

Together we said “come what may”

Cavalier no longer so dear

However, our time of bright eyes should not hold so much despise

The heat of the moment cooled as the days went by

The sparks still fly when you pass by

We share a smile, knowing what passed only comes by once in a while

Seasons fade, but we remain

“So long” too grave

So I’ll just say

“See you another day”

Tick tock, tick tock

Nobody can stop the clock

But we can pause and honor the time

We stood fast in our spry
