No signs of crow’s feet on your face
marking the time, compared to mine
Simply two hands that keep a pace
with a steady beat in mind
A rhythmic rat a tat a tat
melodic taps of fleeting days
Declaring its silent combat
as the hours tick away

Ominously I hear time ticking away. So prophetic.
I’m not sure why but this piece really resounds with me.
lovely, Kelli <3
Until the battery runs down or the power goes out. Then time stands still.
Lovely poem, Kelli. 😍
