THE CLOCK OF LIFE

        The Clock of Life is wound but once-
        And no man has the power
         to tell just when the hands will stop
         at late or early hour.

         Now is the time you own.
         Live, Love, Toil with a will.
         Place no faith in time
        For the clock may soon be still.


   
And on October 23, 2006, I was almost sure that my
    "Clock of Life" had about run down.
