Time to be Time-Conscious - A Poem

Here is a short and spontaneously written poem by Novice Maxim D’Souza. Read it. It will not cost you a lot of your time.

Punctuality can be learnt from nature.
The sun rises at the exact time set by the creator.
No one needs to remind it. It knows to shine according to the time.
The sun teaches us the value of punctuality.
Our human tendency is to delay our work.
If the sun makes its own time to rise, the world would suffer.
At the due time, the sun prepares itself to set. 
Let us be like the sun in our day-to-day activities. 
When we value time, we value life.  

"To have what we want is riches; but to be able to do without is power". George Macdonald
