Still moments rolling off the fingertips -
He watched them slowly fall until they vanished;
Then murmured requiem with quivering lips
For moments into past forever banished.

In vain He clenched his hands, in vain He prayed
To seize a second for eternal hold;
Yet not a single moment steady stayed
For all the precious jewels, diamonds, gold.

Time seeks no favors - nor gives any man
An audience to plead his mortal case;
The endless bars of light and dark no ban
Themselves will so admit, no pause of race.

Ah, but Time, your gift is but a token;
As She with hers entwined His trembling hand  
In a blink the clasp of Time was broken -
Eternal shines their luminescent band!

Thank you, ARH.

The band, the bond...nothing shines in the corridors of eternity, like the love of two souls bound together...
