Time: a quad poem



(The challenge was to write a poem of four four-line stanzas, each of four four-letter words)
******************************************************************

 



Tick tock tick tock
Keep step don’t stop
Tock tick tock tick
Walk tall don’t trip

Must pace life fast
Zing zest dart dash
Trot trit clop clip
Tock tick tock tick

Time runs like sand
Rush past, take mind
Gone, won’t come back,
Tick tock tick tock

Tock tock tick tick
Such flux must tire
When will time stop?
Tick tick tock tock
