Hello, its #gratitudeday37. Thanks to @tojukaka for coming up with the gratitude challenge you can join by going through his gratitude day introductory post here to know how to participate

Today i am grateful for the gift of time. Time is of great importance to existence. I'm grateful i have achieved quite a lot of set targets at its set time. My goals are time bound and the timing of my set goals enables me to put the much needed work to achieve it.

I thank God I have finally been able to put together a piece about the clock in relation to time. It was difficult to bring this poem from where inspiration is communally stored. Pheeeewww. You have it now, i hope you will have a good read......

The Clock

Like an old deity,
You hold the fate of the world in your two unequal hands.

Hewned by skilled men
Into squares, circles, triangles & rectangles,
You tick at the hour of our birth, at the minute of our death and when new lineages spring.

Creature ranked insignificant,
It is you who tells with your orbital motion,
What complexion earth's face wears, per time.

In your tireless trek,
You wait for no one & all we are subservient to your unseen but divine power.

The clock marches on
And tells of joy and of sadness.
The clock speaks on "tick - tack", "tick-tack",
And foretells the future.

With the numbers that stand around it,
The clock is the key to beginnings & ends.
