Seize every precious moment.

Image via Wikipedia

 

Time stands still for nobody

It continues on forevermore

Minutes they turn into hours

Eluding time is impossible

 

Seconds turn into minutes

Time moves at a steady pace

Accept the fact that time

Never stands still for anyone

Don’t let time pass you by

Seize every moment you can

 

Strive to live a fuller life

Take time to enjoy yourself

Indulge in fun adventures

Live your life to the fullest

Laugh with your friends

 

Form special relationships

Observe those around you

Rebuild old friendships

 

Never waste another moment

Opportunities you should take

Begin each brand new day

Optimistic and positive

Dream of a brighter future

You can achieve anything

    If I had to wake up to a clock like that I would freak out.

    As far as your poem – you are right – dream of a better future and you shall have one.

    TIME AND TIDE WAIT FOR NO MAN ,

    so said Shakespeare ,

    surely he had,

    no women in mind.

    Awesome piece. It reminds me of one of my favorite sayings that comes from the movie Shawshank Redemption. Some people get busy livin, some people get busy dyin. Those that get busy living take advantage of every second.
