At the Third Stroke

Second guessing is reduced again
Lesser cost to borrowed time
Allowing focus on the price of tick
Affecting hours and how bells chime

The rhyme of swinging pendulums
Remains our meter metronome
Irrespective of a moment’s spell
Time is oscillation prone

They’re winding up the elements
To know exactly how time flies
When vacillation is defeated
And best transition then applies

A billionth of a billionth
Means Ytterbium streaks ahead
As long as universal factors
Agree that atoms aren’t misled
