time goes on...

everyday, to the rising sun i say,

i am going to run faster than you today,

and time goes on...

at high noon, i still think i may,

even though on my back i lay,

and time goes on...

by sunset i am reminded of the dues to pay,

and i think to myself, there is always another day,

and time goes on...

(but by night, sleepless i stay,

awake, yet dreaming of the other way,

and time goes on...)

nature blues...

saw a little insect today,

seemed like a cousin of the bee

curled up there it lay,

though it was meant to fly, to be free

with tiny little wings,

and a body as blue as can be

even in death so beautiful, that my heart sings,

thank you nature, for having more colours than we can see...
