Time Never Still By John Herlihy Time has its own will And never stands still Forever on the move Deep within its groove Like a record in motion Lasting in its devotion Time waits for no one Of time to spare, none No moment to deserve No moment to preserve Time rides a fickle arrow So flighty, like a sparrow Time never stays behind Just follows its daily grind In full circle on the return To wait, to happen, to burn - - - - - - (c) John Herlihy 4 October 2018

An exploration of time with simile and metaphor compliments that offer new images of Time's often belligerent wake. Well penned.

Time is fluid, sometimes when you are facing something bad it slows down and seems to just seep along - while the good times fly by. I like this a lot,

"Time rides a fickle arrow
So flighty, like a sparrow
Time never stays behind"
