“Boulders or Buoys, tic-toc, tic-toc?”
To time pay attention,
No one gets to save time for life extension!
I have learned that nothing stays the same for long,
Life is simply a brief choral song,
Time-pendulum’s pace never slows,
I accept that’s the way it is supposed to go,
I feel as if I am in a race with time and
Day by day, time is beginning to catch up with me,
As a human being, it is the same for thee!
tic-toc, tic-toc my friend,
Now in my old age I understand,
Life is a race with time and we must accept,
Eventually time will catch up and pass us by!
Time is a finite measure, with a beginning and an end,
Our choice in this life is sadness or joy,
One will sink us like a boulder,
The other will float us like a harbor buoy!
tic-toc, tic-toc, day by day,
Time speedily marches on,
And as we age we are aware that,
Time, by tic and by toc,
Is gradually winning our life’s race,
As the years of time pass us by,
It looks as if our life will end up in the clay,
Be that as it may,
I hope and pray,
That our bodies shall nourish a beautiful flower someday!
I have accepted that life is a brief choral tune,
My life purpose is to joyfully sing along,
tic-toc, tic-toc my friend,
With the time we have left,
Please join me in a cheerfully uplifting song!
Boulders or Buoys?
It does make a difference!
Sink or float, which one to choose?
What shall be our legacy,
tic-toc, tic-toc, boulders or buoys?
