A Poem: Mind Trick

Last poem for the day. Enjoy!

Mind Trick
The saying is
"Time flys when you're having fun."
But what if you aren't
having any fun?
Does time still fly on by?
Or does it drag like a snail,
or a little kid pulling a doll in the dirt?
Time doesn't move any faster,
I now know
that it's just a mind trick.

  1. Oh, I like this one! It reminds me of the poem dreams deferred by Langston Hughes. The structure is similar! Great job Willa!
