Wednesday's Words on a Friday

The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles.

The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind.

If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along and read it.

This month the words are again supplied by Delores and can be found here.

This week's SINGLE word is:


TIME

TIME ticks on by

like  a heartbeat

day after day

weeks pass, months fly,

the years travel on

how many beats are behind us?

how many do we have left?


I'm hoping for much more time, I like it here on earth.

    1. Uglemor; sometimes I wish time would run more slowly, like it did when we were small children.

  3. I'm with you, time is our most valuable commodity. Well I guess it is not really a commodity, but you get the point. I fear I just wasted some time.

  8. I love this, and the timepiece assortment, but I'm puzzled by the second clock, with FOUR hands! Maybe a second hand, and one that sets an alarm?

    1. Val; four hands? I'll have to have another look. These are all from the Steampunk designs I googled for.

    2. Yes, a second hand and one to set the alarm, just like on my regular clock over on my chest of drawers.

  10. Love that - very poignant! Great pictures too. Now I'm in my 60s I am very conscious of how time flies by and try to make the most of whatever is left.

    1. Around My Kitchen Table; I've noticed time flying, but not when there's an unexpected visitor who loves to talk. And talk and talk and talk....

  12. Love the old Steampunk look, as I have a thing about the early industrial look. I have a similar one over my fireplace, but has three working clocks cluster together. Like your blog, AZDave

    1. Dave Mansfield; welcome to drifting. I love steampunk styles, but can't afford to by any, and wouldn't know where to get them anyway, so I satisfy myself with internet pictures.
