19. .A friend of mine owned a clock
With backward numbers round about
Hands that were the other way around
The shortest was minutes and longest hours
So the twelve o’clock was measured
As a backward six, and six became the backward twelve.
20. There was a movie* I once saw,
Where a boy was born old
A wizened old man, wrinkles,
No teeth and nobbled kneed
And then with the passing of time
The old man grew younger, and as a baby he died.
(*Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Eric Roth 2008)
21. Time and travelling it with ease,
What possibilities? We could fly to see
Our ancestors, and tell them how it is now
In our world and our intelligence and how
We can communicate, over the www
I think they would burn us at the stake.
22. If I could turn back time,
What would I change?
What spells would I weave?
To bring about a life of total ease,
What lessons would I excuse my soul not to take?
The first, because I’d chicken out
Not counted unless I have too because I'll need this one to finish the count, sooo it is here counted..
23. If I could choose a different time,
To be born, a different place to live and learn,
Where would I choose to help me win?
The best deal for eternal grins?
I think I would have to say
No other time except today
(I cheated here this is too probable)
24. If time was to melt in the heat,
Like Dali’s surreal painting
Then in summer time would
Never be measured, unless
It was watched by machines
Strong enough for global warming
25. If my time on Earth was measured by,
A piece of string which I could keep
Beside my bed showing me each
And every hour of which I had left
Would I then still hold tight
To my dreams each night?
I have done seven today because the fifth one isn't impossible. Still counting it to date, it becomes that extra one.
