What’s a year anyway?
It flies… doesn’t it?
Yep, indeed.
What month is it now?
It’s March already
and of course,
a March, would march,
wouldn’t it?
Hither and thither,
I’m thinking…
What?
Well, March is a month
which has a crossroads in a way.
Oh yes, the equinox!
It could be spring or autumn.
Interesting isn’t it.
But either way,
summer or winter will fly;
and then it will be…
yep… another year!

A very enjoyable poem, Chris — clever and quirky. “Next year was better”? Time travelers love that quote. 🙂

I was rather tempted to use that metaphor, but… no. No time travellers were available just now. 😉 Thanks, Dave.

the only thing about the passage of time that bothers me is that it (the getting from then to now) is accelerating… that’s just not right!
I mean sure, when I was young I couldn’t wait until (fill in the blank) but did it go by quicker? nooo! Thanksgiving to Christmas in the 3rd grade took, by all scientific measures at least three years.
now I pretty much focus on the day as months are passing like a runaway train
