Marks of Time

I bear the weary marks of time
From a dreary mountain climb
Holding on to mental dare
By hand and foot and swear and care

And though I really cannot stop
I see a raven on the top
Circling with a distant leer
Making mock my near and fear

I know some day that we will meet
My journey comes to near complete
And I will fly a spirits flight
With the raven and in the night

My skin will turn to feathers black
My arms will turn to wings I lack
And I will fly the darkest blue
To change into the newest coup

My dust will fall on earth and sea
And change to something yet to be

Morning Sy!
Love your words this morning...
I had a hard time finding you with these mice at play..
but here you are and I brought tea!
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
dancing with you in the summer rain~

And I shall see you there. Excellent write Sy. Thanks,

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
