I reached
A bellwether
In the way
That I see Time

Once said
“Time is money”
But it’s more
Than that worn line

Pouring
From my bucket
#Timed flows
Flood the Evermore

Flowing til
Pail’s empty—
With no way
I can get more

No Time to quash
Unkind words
Or change
A losing score

the biggest difference between money and time is you always know how much money you have but you never know how much time you have .

The quest took Rory to the furthest reaches of the region, up into cold, ice-bound passes where fearsome creatures roamed. He knew this particular item would not be #relevant for the quest, but it had to be checked.

This was the problem with playing the game too long. Too much familiarity.

I wish our moments together
weren't #timed
the second you arrive
hourglass starts to empty

my feelings are bittersweet
happy for getting you closer
and sad for having to let you go soon

I wring each ounce of pleasure
from the moments
to bask in its glow
after you leave

Love is more than words
More than the number
Of rose petals in a bunch

Love isn’t #hard
When you understand
The language of your heart

She #timed the silences
That vastness where intrusive thoughts
Snag & nag her attention

He is her Rose,
#Addiction spikes
Her thorns

A mother can shield, early years,
From harm
But defences fail when addiction grips

Stealing time

As life ticks on, toward the black

I’m finding time is flying by as I read your prompts, which leads me to the T in a SMART goal. T is for timed

If I go on holiday, I plan exactly where I’m going & what time I’ll get there. Time helps me focus & with the way my mind works that’s a 👍

The days were stoked in cherry haze
the skys of amber still ablaze
below the tors the rowan trees whispered
a name that only i know
within a kiss
she was a windfall in my forlon refraction
an indiom of touch and gentle action

the stream of my thoughts
flows over reality
touching fantasy

they seem #relevant to me
as I compose stories

if you're trying to find truth in them
be forewarned
I'm a writer
hence a professional liar
I mean a dreamer
I dream of influencing the world
one story at a time

portions of me
set free
quietly letting go
I’m slowly learning
how certain losses
have become gains
chance encounters
as unforgettable lessons
plot twists
as course-corrections
lovers transform
to teachers
Each day
I learn to cherish
#relevant parts of me
that stay

Lifeboats of paraffin,
burning with a fire within.

A tryst with the riparian,
an ocean of #options spread thin.

Unsure winds tear the shroud,
flaming red, fierce and loud.

Molten smouldering trails in sunset’s golden, only flakes float
from the days olden.

Are the seasons all four

If it rains it rains
If it shines sun it shines sun

Colourless are the snowflakes
Dead brown the leaves

I don’t care
My pockets are flooded
With rainbows

Mum, do you remember that time at the doctors, when we questioned his reasoning

Yes, my health was deteriorating & that prescription was no longer #relevant!
He just ignored us, & wrote another one!

He’s struck off now, for overprescribing

Yep,
Now now he’s no longer #relevant

#vss365 ‘ers you are fabulous-yesterdays writing was bang on relevant, which leads on nicely to asking, is my goal relevant…

Is it worthwhile to me? Is it indeed my goal, or has it been forced upon me by someone else?

As we waded through the fog, I said, “What a good metaphor for life. Not focusing on distant goals, but taking small, #achievable steps.”

I turned to him, but he’d gone.

“You’re welcome,” whispered the fog. And a world of new options opened up before me, as yet unseen. #vss365

It would all be achievable

Why ask such weird questions, she chuckled !

Hope you #achieved all that your dad dream't of you, when you were in your teens

Yes, to the max i did, but little more to lift myself to the sky,two more of his wishes yet to fullfill in this age.

My chest thumps so light
and I freeze

Lips flicker from a hint of a breeze
Déjà Vu I taste I saw
and I know

We don’t exist we echo
Here and there
Nameless but we know us

Soulmates searching
For unblocked gates
Within an #achievable haze

The YARD was cross
always came
3 inches short

The METRE stood taller
even grander
yardage lingered on
to #measure distance & length

Meterage
traded a single ‘e’ (in US)
began its own practice
measuring every measurement
How unfair
the endless need
to measure up

Wow! Isn’t it incredible what can be achieved with just one word! Which leads me on to ask, what next?

What about this goal, is it right for me?
Is it too challenging or too easy?
Have I unlocked my potential?
Is it achievable?

I never wanted to #achieve you
for I know death would've the upper hand
eventually

I just ache to be with you
night and day
weeks and months and years

with you, not a second is dull
time flies
and time drags when you're away

‘You need to stop comparing yourself to others.’

‘I know. But I just can’t help it sometimes.’

‘You’re unique. The only #measurable thing should be how you feel. Don’t worry. Be happy.’

‘Wow. Have anymore worthless advice?’

‘Remember, at the end of the day -

It’s night.’

i am a beaker,
a fragile glass vessel
bare as betrayal

‘til you fill me
with the silken splashings
of your chemistry

reactions ululate
in silent violent science

i await, patient
eager to see how measurable
your love has become

or if what results
remakes me.
