Time Can Be

Time can be spacious for it has no end.
It goes on forever and makes no friend.

Time is possessive for it seems to hold on.
It does not relinquish when all youth is gone.

Time can be serious for it accepts no ploy.
It has not judgment, thus it feels no joy.

Time is a burden for it is always there.
It can often hurt but it is mostly fair.

Time can be beautiful painting pictures with grace.
Just look around you at Mother Natures face.

Time can be loving with a gentle touch.
It caresses all life and to life means so much.

Time can be of value, much more than pure gold.
But this you will learn as you begin growing old.
