Time Pirates

 

What do we do with the hours of the day that are not ours?

Many make claims upon the time allotted to us.

Are we intended to be a source of supply?

Physical, mental and spiritual demands cascade one upon the other.

 

Who will replenish our own meagre resources?

There are no everlasting reserves unless prudence has added to them.

A day can last a long time; yet once gone, is spent.

What priority takes precedence?

 

Will we appraise ourselves and more importantly appraise others?

No, it is not an action taken in our myriad relationships.

Self satisfaction is not often found and is rarely gained.

What resolve will bring us closer to our expectations?

 

Thoughts are not compressed into clear cut lines!

We should state plainly to all who transact with us, our terms.

Listen to me! Lord or Master, Servant or slave, and wonder.

When those hours are spent who will fill the gap and add to your time?
