Poem from Social I, Not

Hi guys, 

Just wanted to repost this poem that is in my Social Media Musings two-book collection. You will find it in "Social I, Not" poem book. I have included the feelings I was having at the time of writing that is also included in the text of the book as in the Social Media Musings collection, instead of "thoughts" I included my feelings at the time of writing the poem. You may notice publication date of book is different than time of writing the poem. 

 

Precious Time

A piece here, a piece there

One gives it away without a thought

Never once to be thanked

Time spent that could be elsewhere

Rather admirable or careless

It’s precious this thing given away

Which some don’t appreciate

When it leaves one in despair

One needs to be thankful

Time spent in one’s presence

Put together the pieces remembering

How precious the time when one was there
