“THE HANDS OF TIME”
By Rod E. Urbano

I wish I could turn back the hands of time
And replay all the events of my life.
The trivia and the gem shall intertwine
As flashback of my enduring strife.

The lonely tears I shell shall creep once more,
The sound of my laughters shall fill the air!
That precious moments, -the chance to explore
Happiness and the abyss of despair.

Withered leaves refreshed rejoin the branches
Like from childhood to birth, -resurrection!
Instant replay of the past that touches
Joyous conclusion and morbid repulsion!

Rewinding the time is mere fantasy
For once it passes by… it shall be gone!
Some were naive, some with wild ecstasy,
Others, nonchalance and even left undone!

Hence…
I shall be worthy of what I have today
Tenfold my friends instead of enemies
Knowing…
“Never again shall I pass this way”
I’LL cherish great and small! -sans boundaries.

I’ve wished I could turn back the hands of time
But solely in the name of love sublime.
