The Ticks and The Tocks
Artist Unknown
Every now and then
I stop myself and ponder
Of my priorities and doings
And I wonder
Am I where I want to be?
Have I done all that I should?
Or am I, a wannabe?
Just doing what I could?
I will never grasp the Golden ring
By sitting and wishing
For a thing
Or so I contemplate
But let me not be
One who almost made it
Yet one, who overcame
And yes, rose above the doubts
For no matter how hard
You run, or walk
You will have to face
The Ticks and the Tocks

Wow! Super post! I love the Ticks and Tocks of a clock and the measuring of “Our Time” passing by! Bellisimo!!
Perhaps you may enjoy a couple of my pieces on the subject – HAIKU: NO TIME TO WASTE; HAIKU: I HEAR THE TICKING; PLUS 18 – TIC TOC A LITTLE FASTER, CLOCK; TICS AND TOCS (MOSAIC PIECES)!!
Loved the message of your piece! Reminded me of the quote I love – “What have you done today, to make your dreams come true”! That one always holds my feet to the fire!
