Is time a Commodity or a Gift?

TIMELESS

I used to resent losing my time,
giving up an hour or a day to others,
for activities I saw had little value.
I now realise, that it’s not
my time to lose or to give up.

I used to regret wasting my time,
sitting doing nothing,
when I should have been so productive.
I now realise, that it’s not
what I think is productive that matters.
