kinders watch closely as the sand slips away.
—
‘the sand in the hourglass runs from one compartment to the other,
marking the passage of moments with something constant and tangible.
if you watch the flowing sand,
you might see time itself riding the granules.
contrary to popular opinion,
time is not an old white-haired man,
but a laughing child.
and time sings.’

Instantly makes me think of “Like sand from the hourglass…..” in McDonald Carey’s voice. Good times.

What a great way to look at time! I too, rather see a chance in it than a thief.

Neat! I’ll bet many kids have never seen a working hourglass before. I liked playing with my Granny’s egg timer as a kid…
