Memories

Memories:

They're something we look back on,
To bring us a smile when we are down.
To envisage a person,
Much rather than wearing a frown.

They take us back by the tick of a clock
Whether it be a watch, a compass, or down by a dock
That harbours ships which sail daily
To a land that used to move ever so gracefully.

As you get older, your memory becomes flawed,
And you soon forget what many have already forgotten.
Alas, there's one thing left that can bring back the art;
Just always remember to trust in your heart.

Growing Old.

This isn't all forever, This isn't going to last. Some day in the future, The present'll be past. There won't be smiling faces, Or a young body to run.

Gramps

We went round to his house today, It was empty yet again. He'd gone out, yet again, Forgetting we were coming. He forgets everything these days. His house is a shrine to the past.

Memories Of You

Ruby red wine sits in the crystal glass. The dusty leather bound book a diary of the past. The old clock ticks, striking upon the hour The candle is no more, extinguished by the draught.

Bye Bye Olympics...

I'm sad to soon be waving bye to my beloved Olympics, I don't know how I'll spend my days; just go back to the basics.
