May 2005 Poetry
Time Passes By The sun rises The sun falls A little boy An old man The moon is full The stars shine brightly A little girl An old woman The clock ticks Tick tock. Tick tock. Seconds become Minutes become Hours become Days become Years become A lifetime A little boy An old man A little girl An old woman Walk across the sand Remembering The sun The moon And the stars Her Piece of Sand The lady watches summer sand Originally published in American Poetry Anthology (Fall 1986) Little Girl Short red hair Brown eyes looking at me Wondering Innocence of youth A smile A giggle Laughter is all around me Jumping and playing Everything is so simple Again I look into your eyes And I see myself Memories Bring tears to my cheeks An old man Looking into the past Wishing He could do It all over again … you sit there wondering why is that crazy old man looking at me?
