I am sitting next to the window,
watching kids play, planes flying
overhead, wind blowing trees,
and time passing by.

I am cooking in the kitchen,
singing golden oldies, dancing to
the melodies, tapping to the beat,
and listening to the time passing by.

I am reading the daily newspaper,
crying for the children, laughing at
our politics, mourning souls lost,
and realizing that time is passing by.

I am watching television,
surfing channels, admiring the
movies stars, jamming to Rap City,
and seeing that time is passing by.

I am saying my evening prayers,
getting ready for bed, feeling
good about having another day,
and wondering how TIME is PASSING
ALL of US by.
