I Break the Hourglass..



My Post # 399

Written for One single Impression...
Prompt : Hourglass
Thanks to Julie of 365 for this week's prompt, hourglass



I Break the Hourglass..

Slipping sand
In the hourglass
Makes me count moments
Finding it difficult to
Take it any more
I break the hourglass
Splattered grains of sand
Shine as each one of them 
Get stuck on my 'Present'
And then slowly slip down
Melding with the
Fractured ground of the 'Past' 
That slowly keeps emerging
Only to be left behind
And I focus on making
Every moment count...


 RS :)

    Nicely done, Ramesh. I have never worried about a broken hour glass. Do you think that breaking one brings seven years of bad luck?

    Making every moment count is a very good plan! When we do that, time no longer matters.
