"The Hummingbird of Time"

Time is racing by, flitting like a hummingbird from flower to
Flower. Dipping our minds into each second, to sample
The nectar of the moment, never really stopping to
Take in the depth of the meaning of the moment.
Hearts racing, minds awhirl we hurry through
Our days, until we come to the end without
Ever having truly lived. Yes, live in the now,
But take time to soak in the experience.
Take time to see, really SEE the beauty
Around you. Be Kind to all you meet.
Give of your time, that is the most
Important thing, because your
Time is yourself, your love
And your care. All your
Friends know this is
True of you; you
Should listen
To them.

Ooh i love the pattern at the end!

side of the title at the end?
In either case, I thank you deeply Thanks @girlwithoutwings, but do you refer to the pattern of my words, or the artsy thing I put on either

The word pattern although those thingies are very nice too. I love the idea of getting my poetry to look so aesthetically pleasing :)
