Time


A minute spent with your grandpa,

as he takes his last breath

can feel like an eternity

 

While saturday and sunday just breeze on by

 

Time is everything

an eternity

not to be taken lightly

 

So when given the chance

to play catch with your dad

or to sew with your mom

make sure you take it

 

Because time may be everlasting,

but we are not

and should not be taken lightly
