Quickly

QUICKLY

Quickly the seconds keep ticking around,
Quickly red kangaroos leap over ground;
Quick are the swifts as they glide up so high,
Quick are jet planes as they roar through the sky.

Quick is a cat as it leaps from a wall,
Quickly a fire's bright flames are unfurled;
Flashing lightning is quick, but quickest of all
Are the rays of the sun spreading over the world.
