THE ILLUSION OF TIME- (bigger and better font- easier to read)

The illusion of time

As the time in the morning always comes too early,

The time at night slips slilently away,

The illusion of time may cause me to say,

The mornings come during the right time of day,

And the nights I do not really stay awake to see,

The illusion of time depends on the perspective of you or me.

Time is measured by man each nano-second,

The measurement is odd and hard to imagine,

As I have moments that feels like it lasts forever

As the other moments seem to whiz by in a second. 

 Days turn into nights or do nights turn into days?

Weeks melt into months that suddenly become years.

This is what is time is (at least from my perspective)-

The illusion of time

One of my favorite subjects. One also, of my most engaging enigmas. What I do with it, can do with it, should do with it .... so often hinges on the agenda in play. Is it my agenda? Someone else's? A combination of the two? Are these agendas under TIME constraints? Was there a time shift in priority usage? Y'nome sayin? People write about how YOU can save it while THEY get rich off the interest in it. Got extra time? Put it in the TIME vault! Please visit my page and see it in depth. That is .......... if you have the TIME!

In Hinduism, the supreme reality is really your unconscious mind while everything we see in the "world" is an illusion. I think your poem invokes everyone of us to look for sometime beyond... Thank-you

I love your poem. I like anything that makes you think, simple poems bore me slightly. Time is an especially thought evoking topic, is it not? I lke how you worded this, Very nice.

This made me think and gave an added perspective to put with my own. This drew me deep into contemplation.Damn those ticking sounds-fleeting years-slow inching trips-I enjoy your gift. No more man time for me. Threw away all my clocks! You wrote of truth with wisdom.It is illusion.

unfortunately an illusion I must abide by- at least when I'm working

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
