Time Waits For No Man

PAD Challenge day 20: For today’s prompt, pick a popular saying, make it the title of your poem, and then, write your poem.

Never early, never late

Mystic moment-metered gait

Does not hurry, does not wait

Free-for-all free-falling

Second-minute-hour-day

Week-month-year; it ticks away

When it ceases none can say

Elemental calling

Here it is and there it goes

...and here it is; it never slows

Composer of rhyme and prose

Metrical arrangement 

My, we sigh, 'how Time does fly'

Hello, we say, then goodbye

Morn-noon-night colors the sky

Momentous estrangements

Feel it, hear it, touch it, taste

It is too precious to waste

Never falters, never hastes 

Season follows season

Unequivocal design

Articulate pantomime

Moment-manifesto; time

And it waits for no one

Janet Martin

I began this poem much earlier...then Time got away on me😀
