time is of the essence
deadline coming soon
time is money
deadline is tight
time is relative
deadline looms
time running out
deadline is past
ending of the end
tick tock goes the clock
swoosh!

Googled words – time is and deadline is
This is gorgeously worded! I love the combination of time and deadlines as they both go hand in hand 🙂

I wonder if people realise clocks will keep ticking well beyond a perceived end.

I enjoyed the way you played with ‘time’ and ‘deadline’, Eugenia. As I get older, I am ever more conscious of the final deadline.

Since I retired I don’t have as many deadlines as in the past. Of course, there is always the final deadline but I tend not to dwell on it. Thank you for your comment.

How Eugenia. I’m a day late getting around to reading peoples works but I love what you wrote here so I guess the wait was worth it. 🙂 You dealt with time wonderfully in this poem, and I love the GIF that you put at the top. Fascinating. Great choice, great work.
