About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write.
Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground.

Timing
Prompt “Execution is something, but timing is everything.” Todd Stocker
What does “timing” mean to you? What happens when your timing is off?
==========
Timing may refer to many things that have to do with time or more like the time we spent on anything or if we did something on time, earlier, or later.
Timing in music and standup comedy refers to the use of tempo, rhythm, and pauses, in other words, synchronization.
The process of measuring the time for anything is also named timing, even someone’s memory’s performances are measured in RAM timings.
If you are an investor, your market timing will mean predicting future market movements.
In the mechanical world timing of the various parts of a machine is important for the machine to work properly.
When timing refers to our ability to do something at exactly the right time and the right way, I would have to say for myself, for my life events, my timing was sometimes on and sometimes off. Well, mostly off because of when I was born.
As to the timing of my birth, I would have loved to be born much later just to see where the electronic age will take us. Although being inept and terribly undertaught in all the electronics areas, I am intrigued and in awe with computing and programming. All the new findings cannot come fast enough for me because I am curious,    even if I can’t understand a thing because my timing to be born was off.
