No speed limit signs
Officer parks, half hidden
Tell it to the judge

No tick toc of time
Hours pass with no noise now
Watches are not wound

Francis or Frances
A name can tell you so much
One vowel does it

Neckties proudly worn
School colors send subtle signs
I’m better than you

Flip flops are flipped off
Feet feel sand hot from the sun
Run to the water

The gondola sways
In the clouds for eighty days
Air legs under me

The old man laments
“Youth is wasted on the young!”
The young disagree

Hearing bells ringing
The clock tower is booming
Time passes, singing

Please pause a moment
The sun is at his zenith
Your shadow is small
