Distant In Time

Memories will oft become distant in time sentimental journeys too far to reach A faded photograph with meaning sublime A song of old with lessons to teach So far away our thoughts may stray as memories become distant in time Distant tomorrows are nearer today Life's script is not a paradigm Life itself will become a distant thing as time bridges the mortality gap Our memory will then become distant in time And a faded photograph will hold meaning sublime ----

Your words bring the reader back to those times, those memories preciously whispered into a vision. How wonderful!
