...by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip"
Why's everyone in a hurry?
Not just everyone, everything!
Even time itself is in a rush.
When was it Friday? When!?
Only for me to blink
Whola! Another's here.
Yet, we celebrate birthdays
Ignoring our death dates.
Just a while back
I trekked miles to school
Now, I drive others there.
A single child to my dad
Fathering more in a lifetime.
Day or night, dusk to dawn
Takes seconds, a mere yawn.
Fresh flowers wilt then wither.
Born Monday, gone before
In same, gain fame, some shame
Seems "Rush in the new slow"
Just smile to a push or a shove
24 hours a day's no more enough
For many desire 30 or even more
Things, happening so fast now
Before you die, the day's over.
