My oh my
How the weeks fade to months and then
Months fade to years.
Even the sorry soul relates
I knew a man who stood the test of time
His years felt like months and
His months felt like weeks
Minutes with him moved like seconds and
I never did mind myself growing old
For the man made time move so fast
It was if time had never moved at all
With the pandamic still underway, time seems such a weird concept.

During her college years, she took a more serious bent toward writing and started to post on her blog (The Life and Times of a Quirky Character.) Currently, she resides on the East Coast of the United States just north of the country’s capital.

A very beautifully evocative piece. Time is indeed strange. Beyond strange.

Time is a fascinating subject… and why is it so…. somedays time just flies, …and somedays, the time clock never seems to move..
