Sonnetina Uno  Poem – What is Time

What is time

With time it’s either gone or still coming
It’s the past, present, through to the future
Just stop a minute and think about it
the last minute has already passed by
this minute has nearly already gone 
the next minute is here, now it is gone.
Now five minutes have passed by, wasted time 
as I have been thinking what else to write
another sixty seconds have gone by.
So with time we mostly are in the past. 

Sonnetina Uno – A decastich (10-line poem) written in one single stanza, it is unrhymed and written in iambic pentameter, in other words, it is written in blank verse. What is the difference between blank verse and free verse? The difference is in the structure. Both blank verse and free verse are free from rhyme scheme. But, whereas blank verse does have a consistent meter, usually iambic pentameter, that creates a du-DUM rhythm effect, free verse is free from both meter and rhyme. It is free from the limitations of verse poetry.
