Time does not drink tea
Not with sugar, not with milk
It does not have time
Not to stop, not to think

Time it moves
Without legs, without feet
Without a body or a head
It flows, it fleets

Time does not sit down
To eat, to breathe
To take a break is unheard of
It must go, it must wreathe

Time does not have time
To drink tea, or to think
It does not have time
To stop, or to blink

For time is generous
It gives, it heals
It grants us moments
To love, to feel

Time gives us chance
To live, to be
Thank you, Time
For the time to drink tea
A poem written to serve as a reminder  to appreciate life and the time you've been given, the times you've had, and the times that are yet to come.
