a well written and meaningful haiku. Its observation is a valid one. The years seem to accellerate as you get older and you find yourself wishing you could turn back the time. Well written - Pete

Reading this bring to life the realization that time is an equal opportunity rush job. For me, time took on a runner's pace when I hit my 40's. Looking back, I don't know where they went ,or what I did during that time. However, not everyone feel like that. For people who felt they had to hold on the rails after 21, this is the poem for them.

I appreciate a poem that doesn't requires 10 stanzas to make a point.

Time seems to be your element and maybe the work of Salvador Dali ex avmurray. So true with childhood and as a young adult. It gets worse as you grow older with deadlines you set yourself occurring too soon. Good poem worthy of a contest.

I really didn't take note of times passing so quickly until I was in my forties. I guess it's different for some than others. I enjoyed reading this ultra short poetic format... John

The message is, unfortunately, all too true. With all this wisdom I've obtained in my old age, I'll never have time to share it a lll. LOL Good job on the presentation of your comment.

LOL! So true. It seems my birthday comes twice a year. As soon as I'm one age older, it's time for another birthday. I loved that darn art image, Gosh it's beautiful and so crystal clear, like I can reach in and pick up a watch. The background color is very suitable.

You captured my attention from the start
I love the words to your poem I would not want to be that age for there are unpleasant memories for me at that age.
Thank you for sharing.

expressed these thoughts today myself. Looks like yesterday I was eighteen and leaving school. i never like to think of it since it means that the end is drawing nearer and nearer.
Lovely snippet that says a lot
