A rhymelet on the importance of time for children: <br />By Jaypee <br /> <br />When we find our time ticks out <br />We fail to see how fast it denies us <br />The same things that we hold abreast: <br />Pity, we don’t see that it has no stops. <br /> <br />The worst of our enemy is our thought <br />That it is ‘a no-way-out’ intent <br />But, that we have no way out isn’t <br />that we haven’t at all any way out. <br /> <br />What we are worried more about is <br />That ‘we’re denied’, not what we’ve got. <br />Who is there in your own empire <br />to deny you this or that or whatever? <br /> <br />When we let our time tick out <br />An opportunity we simply deny it. <br />At, ‘oh, it wouldn’t be different either’, <br />we deny us our own destined hour. <br /> <br />It is much more painful than what time is <br />To be unaware of what our time keeps for us. <br />Catch up! It is now, neither later nor ever. <br />Catch up! It is now, neither later nor ever. <br /> <br /> A. Jayaprakash<br /><br />A.
