Between The Seconds

There are lifetimes to be lived, between minute spans of time.
Not so very frugal, we often spend them like dimes.
We crash about, and gnash about, in some tornadic blow,
and as we may SEEM to be moving fast, we're often progressing slow.
Perhaps to "pace" our time might work, as we usually hope life's strong;
Yet rarely do we hold to us "between the seconds", long.

Wow, I really like your poem. It's very interesting and it causes me to think in wonder about how people could live if they just slowed down and took a look at their life once and a while. It's also very interesting that you mention a person can live a lifetime between minute spans of time. If you think about, this especially holds true for people who accomplish more in a minute of their life than a person did in their whole lifetime. It also brings about the questions of whether or not a minute of someone's life can determine the experience of their whole lifetime. Very Good Poem!!! It really got me thinking :)
