Grandma Barnard's clock

The picture above is my Grandma Barnard's clock. She bought it sometime in the 70's, I think, so it isn't an old clock, but it is the one she had in her home when she died. I was lucky to get it and because it didn't keep time well we took it to be repaired. It took about a month but we got it back an only cost $40 to repair it. I don't think it cost that much when she bought the clock, but it was worth it to us. It has been in our home now about 19 years. As the clock tics away so do the days we have here on earth. I hope to make them happy for my family and those around me...and if not happy at least interesting.

The Sands of Time

The sands of time erode my body.
The rising tide carries away my youth.
But deep inside,
where time is not.
Eternal youth springs daily.
