"Where Did the Time Go?"

Once it was summer -

The lazy days of talking to neighbors

and watching our gardens grow,

Where did the time go?

Once it was fall-

With leaves turning to bright reds and yellows

and children returning to school,

Where did the time go?

Once it was winter-

Snow and ice covered the ground with trees barren

and fireplaces aglow,

Where did the time go?

Once it was spring with flowers budding and

birds reappearing-

Where did the time go?

It rolled right back to its past just as God planned it to go.
