put your hand in mine,
and together we will find
[find] the man who sells
other people's wasted time
we'll tack those daytime hours
onto mountain hikes
lined with wildflowers
we'll add to the late afternoon
[and] enjoy a longer sunset
before the rising moon
and in the evenings as we make love
we'll increase the amount of time
for us to lose track of
oh, put your hand in mine,
and together we will find
[find] the man who sells
other people's wasted time

Neat and a good thing to aspire to. Think you can use it better, huh? Maybe. Good job- Jerry

Could be a song.Perception of time: I have a granite paperweight I gave my dad: God does not charge time spent fishing against a man's alloted life span. I ken what you're saying and if it seems to be so, so it is. Jerry-You're really good with words, gal.

AND THIS ONE TOO!
I would LOVE to meet the man who sells other people's wasted time.
Dive into an enchanting adventure! This light-hearted romance will transport you to 17th-century Scotland, where a free-spirited 21st-century heroine brings love & laughter to a stressed-out laird's life - with a little help from the Fae!
A search for the ghost of a chorus girl chorine haunting a costume designer’s Manhattan apartment leads to an encounter with an eccentric, mischievous witch with the ability to send folks back through time…in this case, the 1919 Ziegfeld Follies.
