Two years seems like fifty
Even the settled dust
vies for the time
between grey temples
and illusionist dreams


Memories upon the heart
cling to the mind
Like dew to grass
While scattered chronologies
confuse the year,
the hour,
and the day


Where did we go?
And where have I been?
Scattered amongst the many feelings
drifting with the wind
Shall the day pass tonight
without a mere thought?


Perhaps a different dawn
A crystal shadow to beckon
to an unforgiving scar,
Will one day capture the wind
Explain these feelings
in a whisper


Should another pebble
Be cast upon a frozen pond
Church bells ring once again
at five o'clock
in a small town
Where time has no limit
Days pass without a glance...into tomorrow
You shall discover me there
Still standing, frozen in place
as if...I never left

Dennis, I think your questions will help you thaw from your "frozen in time."  A very good write...and indeed I have felt this way at periods in my life.
