Time in Time

One of Ben Paiz's greatest joys was in writing poetry. The following poem was published in The National Library Of Poetry and leaves a fine impression of his life. 

Time In Time 

Who can tell when time began, or its destiny to end; 
It’s said there’s a power that knows, and he’s our greatest 
Friend. 

Like the ocean wave that begins its flow: 
Who knows where it began, and what end it will go. 

To measure time great men have tried, their efforts were in 
Vain: 
For he who captures time in time, is certain for great fame. 

Our time is measured in segments of life, where humans come 
And go, 
The time of birth to death, is a measure that we know. 

Time is not certain for us all, for some comes an early fall: 
For others the seasons may extend, but eventually their time 
Will 
Also end. 

Whichever way we use our time, by the second, hour, day or 
Year, 

Use it carefully, spread it well, and leave a legacy fine and 
Clear. 

Benjamin Franklin Paiz
