On Time

On time for this and on time for that,

Time for an umbrella and time for your hat;

Walk out the door and you're on time for work,

Talk to your neighbour with a nice timely word.

.

On time in life and you'll be on time in death,

With the hope that you'll relive every untimely breath;

We work to meet deadlines at all times of the day,

For that sum of money and the right kind of pay.

.

On time for church to meet and to greet,

To sing hymns and choruses in tune and in beat;

And as the sermon goes on in an untimely way,

We measure the message and hear what they say.

.

On time for dinner and you'll earn the reward,

Of the evening meal when your home and your bored;

Be at your wedding on time for the walk down the aisle,

And you'll be married and carried in a life full of style.

.

On time for school or you will have to have a note,

To earn a car and a house or even a boat;

It's bad to be late and remember the sin,

So try and be clever and put your rubbish in the bin.

.

On time for everything and paradise is all yours,

Like the waves of the ocean washed up on the shores;

On time to God is like heaven and hell,

So live on earth wisely and all will be well.

.

Signed,

As I'll do it.
