PROGRAM NOTE
Time Is, is a beautiful poem by Henry van Dyke, comments on how we experience the slow or swift passage of time based on various states of emotion.

TEXT
Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait,
Too Swift for those who Fear,
Too Long for those who Grieve,
Too Short for those who Rejoice;
But for those who Love,
Time is not.
