Years When time as time must always, claims its due Away the years like so much sand are swept. When seasons left to love are far too few And rivers overflow with tears we've wept. Our love will be our comfort and our guide And memories will brighten waning days. While youth, eternal youth, will so abide, Forever frozen there within our gaze. Though stars may lose their majesty and fail Bereft of any need or will to thrive, Our love will never lessen, dim, or pale, But ever deepen, flourish, and survive. So let us face tomorrow free of dread Rejoicing in the journey just ahead [This message has been edited by David2 (02-18-2004 09:03 PM).] |

This is a big poem in a very small package. I think it should be read several times, in order to get the full effect of the words and the way they are used. Kaz |

(big angel hugs) Oh David, I couldn't agree with you more, dearest friend, we must embrace tomorrow without the past dominating, like living "yestermorrow" as I like to put it! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet David, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
