16/11/2016 0 Comments THEN.....When the limbs waste away in the twilight of my day,
And my mind ceases to know what it seeks to say. When my foggy sights fail to trace the flight of the dove, Let my soul recite to you its silent verses of love. Keep me company in that cloudy sunset, my friend! When my thoughts, dear, flow no more like the river clear, And I sink on parched earth of the dry bed with a quiver. When my words that once enchanted so, thrill you no more, And your caring for me begins to appear like a daily chore. Stay with me for a few fading moments, my friend! When I lie lonely, heavenwards I feel the swan soar, My colourful thoughts of fancy take flight, alas, no more. When my words no longer decorate the pages in verse, And the only sound that rings in my mind is of a hearse. Lend me a few heartbeats one last time, my friend! The Pearly Gates with gold and jewels are adorned I hear, As I prepare to cross over with faith that knows no fear. Another beautiful sunset shall come in a faraway land, When I shall await you with my love adorned like a garland. For that moment of true fulfilment, I wait, my friend!
