what's wasted?

quality time or
precious clime,
with both, be frugal.
.
the feet of time
is nimble, and with
wings so invisible,
.
time neither wait nor
call back, and clime
neither halt nor recede.
.
stand and ride with
the tide, each time
it rises to glide.
.
waste not money, it
maketh one a pauper.
waste not honey, it's not
easy for the bees to brew.
.
what's wasted,
blood or words? foods
goods or books?
.
It's not good, waste
not good or food, it
hurts the spirit mood.
.
it's not good, waste
not blood or word, it
wearies flesh and soul.
.
and waste not books,
for it's not good, it
deprives man of wisdom.
.
waste not love or emotion,
no, it's not right, it doth
depletes natural affection
.
what's wasted?
if it's time, you're tossed
out of line. if it's clime
you've fallen out of time.
