Words of Thanks, A Compilation of Poems - III

TIME AND TIMES

The forest seems to be so thick and yet my father cleared it in a year.
The river seems to be so wide and yet my father built a bridge across it in a month.
The island seems to be so far and yet my father paddled across it in a week.
The trail seems to be so long and yet my mother walked it in a day. 
The mountain seems to be so high and yet my mother scaled it in an hour.
The ravine seems to be so deep and yet my mother descended into it in a minute.
My heart seems to be so dark and yet they light it up in a second.
