Tis

.
Early is a state of mind
Later is a river
Listen is a buzzing line
Whisper is a quiver
Passion is a turning lane
Helping is a saddle
Heart is broken piece of pane
Breathe is nature's paddle
Sad is measure of a man
Smile is sticky rice
Knowing is aborted plan
Wisdom is a vice
Is is just a tock of clock
Is is just a statement
Is is not defined by me
Is is what you make it
