"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift; that's why they call it the present"


Little time breezes past our conscious fingers
Which are so busy working that they
Do not close in fast enough to catch it.
But time in excess is a moron;
It crawls past like a lazy snail and
Comes in such abundance that
To catch it then with a bottle and
Store it for later use becomes
An impossible and boring task.

I really like your style and idea. That's one of the best poems about time that I have read.
