Grounds of Time


Memories flowing against the tide of time
slowly closing eyes, all thoughts all in one
capturing what was, when roses were fresh
new and fragrance filled the air.

Laughter bursting through sunlight, running
through the park, those were the days of
wine and roses, days when love lingered
softly, among candlelight enchantment.

Involved with glow, love appeared like
a dream, becoming reality, yet when I
opened my eyes, found out it was merely a
dream nothing could have been so perfect.

Now I lay emotionless, a new time, a time
when the moon drops fall upon the vacant
thought of sweet bliss, soon another rose shall
take it's placed among the wilted ones, there
fragrance filling the air once again, romance
dazzling two hearts.

Memories flowing softly against the tide
of time, kissing what was good-bye.

Growing grounds around corner bright
another moment starts a life wise in spirit
and light.
