A Stair Poem *

The tick

And tock of the

Ongoing and steady 

Clock that moves within

Each second, minute, and hour

And helping to regulate and display

The one crucial element that waits for

Noone at all and like a never ending fall 

The ticking and steady clock stays in place

No matter the face that stares at it or not at all

As each hand lands and knows exactly what to do

When the time comes and pacing throughout as a game

That cannot be won and even shunned for simply keeping 

The one thing the clock does best and allowing time to align the rest
