Where DOES the time go?

Here is a little poem for February 1st

Where does the time go when it goes by me?
Does it make its home with God
Gone for eternity?

Where does the time go, seconds ticking by?
I have no time to say "hello"
Much less to wave goodbye.

What is its hurry? Does it have to go?
It seems it pass so very quick
And I, so very slow.

I'll make a vow to hold each moment fast
And make the most of every one
The first until the last.
