"Time Is" By Henry Van Dyke Wooden Wall Plaque 5x8 New

Description: "Time Is" By Henry Van Dyke Wooden Wall Plaque New. "Time Is" is a short poem that presents an ever-changing definition of time. Time is not constant. It varies according to the mental state of a person. Only one can surpass the limitation of time through love. However, the poet captures how time moves, through a set of contrasts. These ideas make it clear to the readers that time depends on how one treats it. And the treatment of time depends on the thoughts a person is preoccupied with.
