My Well

My well now shows with clouds of grime
It’s not the well of former time
Where once I drank of crystal clear
That’s how the waters did appear

My time has changed the mirrors bring
The face I see does not show spring
It shows a Santa Claus of route
Who’s face is creased and full of doubt

The elves have gone and left convoy
The toys lay still and unemployed
The silence has a maddening ring
The hive is gone all but the sting

My buzz enlarged by empty walls
By empty calls and empty stalls
I walk within a phantoms nest
Although my spirit has not crest

I would to filter clouds of grime
And drink once more clear former time

Well, well, well, Sir Sighing Santa!

I am gathering up your elves and heading your way! We'll follow that beacon on top of your house! (winky winky)

We are at your command! You name it! ~ You'll have it!

And btw, I am bringing my magic mirror! I appear as young and fresh as spring when I look in it! ~ No matter how old I get!

Giving you a super duper love hug,
EA

The moment created this second, is a  moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.
