Here we are at the end of 2016. Wow, time has flown by. Speaking of time, here is a poem written by one of the characters from my novel, Chronolocity. Elise shares in our main character Levy’s time travel adventures, in time. These are her quick thoughts on what time means to her.

Happy New Year as you move in time to 2017.

Your friend in Time,

Spending Time

 

By Elise Quinonez

 

Time:

Is like a monetary item

That can’t be saved,

Bartered,

Or

Negotiated,

But can be spent,

Frittered away,

Or

Shared.

 

Time:

Can be built,

Or torn down;

Refined and tuned,

Or ignited and burned;

 

Time:

It makes you wait,

Can turn up late,

Or

Be the best surprise

On one unforgettable date.

 

Time:

Can be a hard master

That owns your years,

Or

A faithful servant,

That shares your tears.

Time:

Is truly what you make it.

Spend it wisely.

Build something lasting.

Be patient with its twists.

Turn tears, fears, and scars

Into an eternal treasury.
