There Comes A Time (Part-I)

Copyright 2004 by:  Mark V Sheldon


There comes a time…

…when all that you’ve learned
is not nearly enough to help you
in what you’re about to experience

…when looking back, one last time
won’t keep it from being the last time

…when your reflection looks older
than you do

…when your parents words
echo through your mouth

…when all the benefit of doubt
won’t change who a person really is

…when images fade faster than
your memory of them

…when friendships become lessons
and lessons become experience

…when time no longer matters.

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

Good Day, Sy...  Lately, those times are more frequent...  Thanks for the observations.

Raph:  Exactlly.

Maureen...  then you know what I mean...

Thank you kindly, LeeJ.

Dixie:  Precisely.

Hi Nancy -- thank you for the encouraging words...  seems like a topic/format with a lot of possibilities.  We'll see where the muse leads...
