60 Seconds: A Poem

60 Seconds or one minute 
And you will not forget 
Anything could happen 
In a second ticking by 
Time flies 
When you stare into the sky 
Clouds floating around the world 
Twirling twirling twirling 
Whirling and spinning 
And you just grinning 
Sixty seconds in a group of ten 
Still not forgotten 
The hands spin 
To who knows when 
Then the clock strikes ten 
And the hands spin 
Round the face 
In a single space 
Circle, oval, oak 
Spinning like an artichoke 
Once we look to the clock 
Everything shakes 
Like a quake 
Looking to the comic cube 
Spinning on the cosmic hoop 
60 Seconds pass on by 
Now, without regret, we all die 
One minute at a time 
Continue with the rhyme 
Though you my be gone 
Your wisdom is not 
For you, this is not a second thought.
