Like a Beam of Light

It passes by
Like a beam of light;
Helping us to fly
With courageous fight.

With sound of a tick and tock
It goes on and on;
For any of us it never stops
Be it John or Shawn.

Some try to go behind it,
Many try to go beyond.
Only those who match the pace can fit
Or those who find a magic wand.

With each passing step,
It teaches us alot to accept;
Storing masses of memories
And loads of life to adapt.

It passes by
Like a beam of light;
Guess what is it
That is so fatal yet polite.

Life if well lived, is long enough.

–Lucius Annaeus Seneca
