Much Ado

Time it does fly
We watch for it's coming
and it's going too
We add and subtract it
Give or take a few
Unless it's a birthday
When Plus's much ado
didn't care when I was one
cared less at twenty-two
but after fifty came and left
I began to get a clue
Birthdays come with balloons
and bright-lit candles true
I can't blow either up or out
without turning a shade of blue
