Analysis of Time passes so quickly
I awake with the dawn
Memories tumble from my past
What to do or not
Harley-Davidsons roar by
Slick wet pavements beneath my feet
Rainbow color flowers abound
Time passes so quickly
Darkness falls like a dark curtain
Is it time for bed
Tis true it is magic
The beaming smile of a small child
Rain on the dark horizon
Smell the dampness in the sweet air
Flowers perk up and stretch
Squish-squish-squish-squash
Its fun playing in the Rain
Memories of another day
Time passes so quickly
Life goes on and the seasons change
Where am I now?
