The Clock

Till my typing is less uncomfortable I'm just C&P'ing, Hope to catch up soon,thanks all for good wishes ,  OUCH!


The clock of life is wound but once,
And no man has the power
To tell just where the hands will stop
at late or early hour.
To lose one's wealth is sad indeed,
To lose one's health is more,
To lose one's soul is such a loss,
That, no man can restore.
The present only is our own
Live, love, toil with a will-
Place no faith in tomorrow - for
The clock may then be still.


Thank you for visiting and please come back, Arlene, Tango and Ruby
