The tick of the clock

The tick of the clock has something to say,

the whiff of the breeze can always take away,

the wet of the eyes of the morning sky,

the prints in the sand of a passerby!

The tick of the clock has the final verdict.

A shooting star can make you an addict

you may flutter and try,you may totter and cry

but soon the fire would be a fleeting lie!

The tick of the clock can never listen

lame excuses of unfinished missions

you sleep a night with a hideous dream

the next morning you could be tasting cream!

the harder you try, the harder it seems,

the cage around you is of iron beams

to run with time is the toughest job

pointing at you, says the tick of the clock!!
