Time is a clock ticking on
Marking the hours with a chime;
Time is a sundial turning slowly,
When it's cloudy, doing a silent mime.
Time is picking a dandelion clock,
The number of blows equals the hour;
Time is watching the seasons change,
Trees are bare and then in flower.
Time is a candle made of wax
Burning its light for many days;
Time is a glass with sand inside
For timing eggs when you're in a daze.
Time my friends can be many things
It passes quick or passes slow;
Time is the one thing we'll all run out of,
But when it's up, well, we won't really know.
