Midnight, then one o’clock, then two.
Clockwise, the hands tick, past you.
Hoping you’ll finish by ten.
Missing that deadline again.
Got to let the hourglass do what it does best.
Wrinkles, and crows feet, and gray.
March time, then April, then May.
Hoping you’d finish by Fall,
Feel you’ve run into a wall.
Got to let the hourglass do what it does best.
Always passing,
Slow amassing,
Grains of sand that gather at the bottom of the glass.
Always fleeting,
Never repeating,
Straight through from the day you start until the day you pass.
(Straight through from the day you start until the day you pass).
Bright red, then dull green, then blue.
Interest, compounding, past you.
Wonder the when and the how,
Hoping you’ll reap what you sow,
Best to let the hourglass do what it does best.
Always passing,
Slow amassing,
Grains of sand that patter at the bottom of the glass.
Always fleeting,
Never repeating,
Straight through from the day you start until the day you pass.
(Always fleeting,
Never repeating)
(Straight through from the day you start until the day you pass).
