Time is..
'
Too Slow for those who Wait
'
Too Swift for those who Fear

Too Long for those who Grieve

Too Short for those who Rejoice

But for those who Love Time is not.



This poem is very short and everything is directly
written that there aren't many parts to analyze,
but it was very meaningful to me.
After reading this poem, I thought this poem was about
the time of the principle of relativity.
I love this poem especially fourth and fifth lines.
It is so true that I feel that time goes so fast when
I spend time with my family and freinds.
And also it is ture that I feel that time shas been topped
when I'm in trouble orin the hardship.
However, the last two lines were confusing to me.
What is time for those who are in love?
Maybe, in my opinion, it means that time is nothing
but a method for those who gives love and receives love.

HaHa, I tried to find a short poem, and finally found it from your blog! (But I heard that most 'short' poems has deeper(?)meanings, and it is..-ㅅ-;) I also feel that time is really short when I spent time with my frinds and family and long when I feel regretful. I think the last line means that time, for who love, does not matter to them.
