In Memory Of A Cloud
When you think of me tomorrow,
Please do it with a smile
For I’m the one who sheltered you
From burning rays up high
Please think of me as quenching
The flowers in their beds.
For they were slowly wilting
Before my rain I fed
And what about my shadow
I cast upon the land
So you could see the colours
That nature put at hand
Or how about the moonbeams
I chased up to the stars
So you could have the darkness
Your sleepy thoughts devours
So when you think tomorrow
Surely you will see
A friend that’s passing by you
Within the sky for free..
Is motion just time
Without measure or rhyme
Or is it a fix thought in space
For who is to say
It was not always that way
For science is merely a guess
And to those in the know
What have you to show
That you’ve grasped the meaning of time
For if motion stood still
There would be no time to kill
And this world would be fine.
Life in Reflection
I saw my reflection gaze back at the moon
Which sent down its moon beams in light ever true
And as I was standing right there on my own
I thought of the past that I had once known
What of it now where has it gone
Vanished forever as if in a song
A lament lost to nature that once there had been
A melody of beauty that danced in my dreams
Gone like the people whose time I had shared
Whose stories had finish and are no longer heard
But I will remember for that is my way
And smile with a tear as their thoughts float today
Out on that journey that brought them through time
Reflecting there gaze that once looked like mine
But now is just held in moonbeams.
Thought to Ponder – I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people. – Isaac Newton
