Keeper of time

Time can be tricky

           Flying by
Creeping along

Where did it go?

Sometimes when I need it
It's not around

Other times I want it gone
           It drags it's feet

There is one thing it can't hide from

A steel clad warrior

He is Sir Bulova
He is my watch.

When I need him
He is only an arms length away

Ready to tell me where time is
And where it is going

I don't know how he does it

Does he beat time up?
Slap it around a little

Threaten it's minutes and seconds?

Maybe they are secretly friends
Pretending to be rivals

To make sure his Bulova brethren
Find a wrist to call their own

Personally I don't know
Nor do I care

For I love my watch
And it's firm hold on time
