Ode to the Hourglass

Engraved with time’s unforgiving score,
Each grain a moment, gone before,
Passing from the top to the floor,
A journey timeless, to explore.

Within its glass, the dance of time,
Each grain a verse, a precious rhyme,
A fleeting glimpse of life’s grand chime,
Captured within its rhythmic climb.

The hourglass, a potent muse,
Inspiring poets to enthuse,
With thoughts of love and moments lose,
Its essence timeless, it bemuse.

The sands of time, a constant flow,
A rhythmic pulse, a timeless show,
Each grain a story, to bestow,
In the hourglass’s endless glow.

A vessel holding moments dear,
Whispers of laughter, echoes of fear,
In its depths, all moments adhere,
A timeless tale, crystal clear.

The hourglass, a symphony of time,
Entwining past, present, and the prime,
Its rhythm weaving a radiant rhyme,
A vessel of temporal poetry’s prime.

Architects of Time

As time flows like grains of sand,
Hourglasses measure the days so grand.
Each second, each hour, each passing year,
Captured in glass, the moments we hold dear.

A vessel of time, an ancient design,
Eternal, unchanging, a symbol so fine.
An artful device, both simple and profound,
In its form, the essence of time is found.

From the past to the future, it gently flows,
Creating a rhythm that everyone knows.
Timeless and precise, it marks the pace,
In its graceful dance, we find our place.

The architects of moments, in grains they entrust,
With the turn of the glass, memories adjust.
Each grain a story, a memory to keep,
In this temporal sculpture, our memories sleep.

Eternal and fleeting, a paradox unseen,
In the hourglass, time reigns as queen.
An exquisite art, a marvel to behold,
In its steadfast rhythm, our lives are told.

The Hourglass of Time

Hourglasses as the vessels holding the sands of temporal artistry
Engraving time’s story in graceful symmetry
Each grain a moment, slipping away
A poetic dance in the grand ballet

With every turn, the sands cascade and flow
Marking the passage of time as they go
Ebbing and flowing in an elegant display
Capturing memories in a seamless array

From birth to death, they measure life’s span
Reminding us that time’s an ever-changing plan
Cherishing each tick, each turn of the glass
As moments slip by, too fleeting to amass

They stand as a symbol of life’s fleeting grace
An ode to the beauty of time’s transient embrace
A reminder to savor each moment we’re given
For in the hourglass, life’s true essence is driven

As the last grains fall to the waiting below
We ponder the legacy that our lives will bestow
For in every grain lies a story untold
In the hourglass of time, our destinies unfold

Time’s artistry captured, timeless and pure
In the hourglass, our journey is sure
Through the sands of time, we find our way
In the vessel of artistry, where moments will stay
