TIME
At the start of this year,
I, as usual, made about a hundred resolutions
-Not to eat too much chocolates
-not to shout when I lose my temper
-not to love it at all.

STOP! – What do you think will the author do to fulfill his resolution?

At the bottom of my long list I wrote
“Keep Your Resolutions”
Using my time wisely is the hardest resolutions to make
I’m not sure if so far
I have kept this promise

Stop! – Why do you think the author cannot keep this promise?

This is because I do many apparently unwise things
This if given a second look would bear good fruit.

Stop! – What does the author do at daytime?

Take daydreaming, for example
Most of the time, it is considered unwise
If you daydream anytime, any day
But sometimes, at the proper moments it is good to day dream

Stop! – How could the author make his daydream come true?

Sometimes, one has an impulse to make his daydream come true
Thus, one works hard to fulfill what he daydream about.
Time is so valuable
That it hurts me to think
That I cannot keep all my memories in a little box
Which I can revive from time to time.

Stop! – What do you think the author did to keep important events?

I have often taped important conversations
and watched my mother prepare the camera to take a picture.
But I have always said to myself that it shouldn’t
Only the special events that will be recorded.
But everything in life
Everything happens only once.
Never can a moment be repeated at the same time.

Stop! – According to the author, how would boys and girls live to the present and the future?

A clock cannot be allowed to back up.
I think the best way to use this year
Would be to live each day, very well
Paying attention to the present moment and the near future.
I hope that all girls and boys will use FATHER TIME wisely.
I think he feels discouraged when he is put to waste.
