Sand slipping through fingers
in streams that are running
your scent takes my memory
away when it fades
Laughter is long gone
the lakes and the valleys
a treasured time spent
in a summertime haze
Promises whispered
not meant to be broken
the shadows will keep watch
until I return
Many years later
found fragile and weeping
an echo of fire
which longingly yearns
I ask of you kindly
sweet gentle reminders
please play my strings softly
when strumming my heart
If love must endure
though the melody lovely
souls can’t harmonize
while they are apart
