Tick by tick ⏰ the moments flee,
Each a whisper, each a plea 🙏,
As fingers round the ring proceed,
Moments mark and ebb and flow ⌊.
Silent guardian of the wall 🕰️,
Witness of fall and rise of all 🌆,
Days that melt in noiseless
Nights that fold in tumbled nooks 🌃.
Faces come, and faces go 👋,
Yet I remain, from toe to toe 👣,
Bound by theh gilt links of time ⏰,
Never sleeping, never chime 😴.
For every hour, every chime 🕰️,
I am but a keeper of time,
Watching, waiting, steady, true 🔍,
As life unwinds in endless view 🌐.
Though time slips past, I do not grieve 😔,
For in each tick, I believe 💡,
There's beauty in the march of days 🌞,
In the clock's unyielding ways 🕰️.
