Time Thief – Prompt Three

Time is a thief. 

I plan to buy back time at my ending. 

I can smell the lack of time left.

            (amazon.com)

In the far lands, 

I hear the ticking 

of life’s time clock.

Yet, I can not taste 

that inevitable 

drip of time melting away.

Let me hold you time 

Allow me to caress your strands

and wrap them ‘round me tightly. 

I am blind,

I can not hear

the striking of the clock bells.

Into a whirlwind

I ride to find my son, Cody

In Cody, Wyoming in time.
