The rise and the fall
Another season’s turning
Ripen on the vine
That is the year twenty three
And two-thousand new vintage
Tag: time
Time slips through fingers
Like a handful of warm sand
Each grain falling away
Yet as empty as I feel
Time clings under fingernails
The day got away
Father time drove by without
Even a hello
Saw the sunset fall through clouds
A brief respite from my screens
Hello my ink well!
Yes, it has been a long time.
The longest March yet!
But do not worry so much,
Last year was just a chapter.
On this day I pause
Reflecting on the past year
Sizing up the next
Planning for what is to come
And the world keeps on turning
Tonight, star gazing!
Hoping for a shooting star
To catch my wishes
I feel young! And I feel old…
As my eyes wane with the moon.
Memories of you,
Captured in light and shadow,
With folded corners…
Alas, all photos will fade,
But your smile is forever.
A day given back
To more than a memory
Greater than a thought
Part of our being, mirrored
Despite the folded corners
