TIME by CLINTON SCOLLARD

First Line: TIME IS AS FEATHER FOOTED AS THE SNOW
Last Line: MARKING THE SWIFT IAMBICS OF HIS FEET.
Subject(s): CLOCKS; TIME;

TIME is as feather-footed as the snow;
So light he treads we never hear him go,
Save when we list the clock's untiring beat
Marking the swift iambics of his feet.
