TIME PASSING BY

I sit here in this 
car with window
down watching 
time passing by
i look out the window 
at the place going by 
wondering where 
my place is in life 
cars would pass
by and wonder
who the people 
are where they go 

I watched the sunrise
sitting here in this car
and watch the sunset
the days were long 
the nights were short 
the motels and place 
to eat were nothing 
to write home about 
time passing by

Then you get to
where your going
and you try to find life
before it time to get back 
in the car agin time passing
by

Wow Greg such a deep write, there is a sadness in it also. Other people's lives are like other people's meals, they always seem tastier and more interesting....are they though?? Pinned ?

I love the interesting perspective you wrote this from. Time goes by and we dont even realise it being in our own busy world but here you have broken it down and given us a different angle to think about it. Like people watching only time watching here. Excellent write. Px

I feel exactly like that when I am stuck in a traffic jam, Greg. But whether stuck in traffic or simply spending a lot of time driving, it can feel very like time is passing you by. A very thoughtful write here, Greg x

Greg you certainly hit the poetry nail on its proverbial head when writing this one.
Superb, honest and so vividly told and a pleasure to read, with perhaps the odd tinge of heartache woven in.
For how right you are about time passing and these days it seems so quickly,
like a mere blink and Christmas is again waiting around the corner.
Enjoyed reading your poem and your deep thoughts on time and one to reflect on.
Thank you Greg and full honours and this is also pinned for your words to reread.
 A superb read to make one think.
For it seems poems about time, its passing and its affect on people are few and far between.
