Life & Time
The first time I see the world
Shining upon me
All of them where there from young to old
Happiness, the real meaning of my life

Time is running so quickly
Like a Superhero
Life it’s my own story
My own Scenario

Hey! I realized something
I’m in High School Teenager
Having anxiety of procrastinating
But I want to become better

When I’m old, getting weaker
I’ll tell my grandson and my granddaughter
Without conflict, life would not be colourful
My Life and Time is beautiful

What is my poem about?
My Poem “Life and Time” is the poem about how time fly so fast. I’m feeling that yesterday I was still in Elementary, playing with all my friends. It was the happiest and most memorable moment in my life that I would never forget. Starting in middle school, I need to adapt to new environment but most of my friends are my friends in Elementary. Now, I just realized that this will be my last year of my High School as 12th Grader which means that life is short and I need to be prepared for my next challenging future.

Specifically to the etymology of the word English, its a corruption of the word "Angles" which was one of the Danish tribes who colonized the island of Britain after the Romans withdrew. In deed, the origin of the word "bird" is mysterious. Yes, Indo- is related to India, specifically from the name of a river: the Indus River, that's where the oldest Indian civilization arose, and the -nesia part comes from the Greek word "nesos", which means islands.

Thoughtful poem; time can seem to be rushing by...
