Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Time Forever Lost, is a poignant verse which captures our current problems. Climate change, loss of a link with the world, the pandemic, all proceed without our trying to intercede.

I have always hoped for a better world. We are in it together. If things don't change I worry, where will we end up? My imagination runs away with me and I might be able to write Sci-fi but I am not a fan of it so I won't even try. LOL This poem is so true, Bill. As you say in the poem;
The world's in turmoil, here and there,
while far too many do not care. Good point. Well done. Nancy:)

A very well-written poem about life that can't be stopped to wait for us. When we do not live our lives fully we miss out on the deal. Yesterday never returns and tomorrow may never come for us.

Great Poem! You put into evidence the value of time and how we -sometimes- waste it! Nicely polished rhyming is present in every letter written. No artwork help imagination to work a bit harder!

nice philosophical poem about time - it passage and meaning. As usual I admire your mastery of traditional formal verse, meter and rhyme. You make it look so easy

Your poem flowed very naturally. I like the mention of not being able to buy back the time we have lost. Many today believe money can buy happiness. Although it can buy many things, it cannot buy back the time we lose with ones we love. How important it is to not take those things for granted. Look forward to reading more of your writings in the future.

Excellently stated friend, Jay. We spend far too much time wasting time in pursuit of solutions to invisible problems that we don't tend to the problems right in front of us. A shared desire to understand another person through the use of empathy seems to be a lost skill.
Always a pleasure to read your work my friend.

You are quickly becoming my favorite poet on this site. Your poems are so right on that my mind is blown each time I read one of them. I am so impressed at how your poems are always right on point and always manage to say something of value, no silly flights of fantasy. You have earned a long overdue six star award from me. I apologize for waiting so long to make the award.
