Your being was a clock of fragile trust With silver workings and gentle chimes Of memories shared that I entrust With tender thoughts of happy times When precious days were long In tune with nature’s mellow song All the while our love was growing And the sands of time kept on flowing Your whispers and your beating heart I hear them, though we’re miles apart Splinters of fragmented times Words of meaning, hidden rhymes We passed through life like grains of dust Stuck together, till you were lost All the while our love was growing While the sands of time, they kept on flowing And even now I see your face For memories cannot be erased They occupy a precious space We owned our perfect time and place Now I think back to happy times Your whispered words like gentle chimes That sparkling clock of fragile trust We passed through life like grains of dust When precious days were long In tune with nature’s mellow song All the while our love was growing While the sands of time, they kept on flowing
