Written for Song Lyric Sunday –
Inescapable Concept of Time.
Here’s how the theme inspired me.
Tag: Tomorrow
Another Tomorrow
Written for Ovi Poetry Challenge #98.
This week’s inspiration word is
“survive”. Keeping with the year’s
theme of positivity, this is my Ovi.
Tick Tock Ticking: An Ovi
Ronovan Writes has offered up Ovi Poetry Challenge #52
where we are asked to write an ovi using the word
“tomorrow” as inspiration. Here is my ovi.
Songs say time keeps on slipping
Like brooks o’er shiny stones tripping
And kids their jumps ropes skipping
It just keeps moving on
It’s safe to say time flies
Like an eagle into the skies
So smoothly, he barely tries
I’d like to touch the clouds
No time to do that now
Worry lines crease the brow
Don’t fret about when and how
Nothing good will come from that
No sticking your head in the sand
It’s time to march with the band
And accept a helping hand
It will all get done
Why put it off till tomorrow
When time you cannot borrow
It flies faster than an arrow
Like quicksilver in your fingers
Don’t say there is no time
To make another rhyme
Or an old oak tree to climb
You have all the time there is
