Relativity

 

Noon time comes sliding slowly

Sneaking up without a warning

Try to catch me by surprise

Made me wait all through mid morning

 

Einstein’s time goes quick slow quick

Don’t want to make the morning last

Mine went slow, just slow

But yesterday accelerated fast

 

What, I wonder, is the difference

How does now become the past?

What mystery hurries time along

Or stops this moment in a flash.
