It happens with the snap of a finger.
It happens in the blinking of an eye,
the fraction of time it takes to live
a life.
Measure it in millions of seconds
and still it does not seem enough.
It is only human to wish for more.
The countdown is on, my friends.
The digital clock is running, keep-
ing time gained and elapsed,
measured in one one-thousandths
of a second.
With a snap of a finger, in the
blinking of an eye--time, time,
time, finite and fleeting. Should
you prefer an hour glass analogy,
the granular measure of your life
and mine.
