Exceptional Hmmm... Ever Wonder? by Y. M. Roger      An 8-6 poem Contest Winner

I asked around, but no one knew how or why does time fly? The birds said they had never seen Father Time flitting by. And for that matter, busy bees said they had never spied, The likes of clocks with wings that sped on high winds ‘cross the sky. Even the moths that flit about when Autumn’s moon is high, All looked at me like I was dim when I dared ask them why. So here I sit without a clue just staring at the sky. ‘Cuz birds and bees and moths, it seems, are in cahoots with time! Writing Prompt First you need to pick one word of one syllable.
