Seize the Moment ©
Stella
Fife, Scotland
2005
Seize the moment as if a dandelion clock
Had just erupted and childlike
To grasp a segment allowed a wish
All the seconds in an hourglass
Together make up roughly
One clock in the meadow
Had you been here earlier
A carpet of yellow
Spread out from tender lion's teeth
It delighted the visitors
Whilst gardeners grieved
Soon clocks would shout.. encore
Bees busied themselves
Children ran on daisy like heads
Time ticked by
So seize the moment
Or wait until a return performance
Graces your path
