Every day is a moment
Every time I blink my eye
Every experience, every anticipation
Every incident glides by

Every year is an hour
Every day I live my life
Every time I realize I want more
Every single passing strife

Every decade is a day
Every day a passing age
Every man slowly realising
We should live this way

Every century we forget
Every time humanity failed
Every time we did silly things
Which we haven't repeated yet

Every time I remember
That time is passing by
The fleeting thought passes me too
And then it is December

Hello again. Tis is a lovely rhyming poem that communicates a universal truth. I really like it. Maybe you might like to consider its classification? PG seems inappropriate in view of the content.

Thank you for your compliments and your graceful critique :) I don't exactly understand the rating system. What would you rate this piece? Could you give me couple of tips?

You've put into words brilliantly how life is here; but gone in a fluttering of the eye.

Hi, you can see at the bottom of your poem "Certificate PG". That stands for "Parental Guidance". I think that you will agree that the content of this piece should be classified as "U" (unclassified)? When you submitted the piece you had the option to select the categorisation that, in your opinion, the piece merited. You can reclassify by clicking the edit option at the top of your poem and then select the category that you think most suitable. Of course if you think that this is a piece that should only be viewed in light of parental guidance then that is your prerogative. I hope this helps.

Thank you! I thought PG was the lowest! Oops!
