Poem
I remember yesterday When I was young and free The world was mine to conquer And love was waiting for me No dark clouds hovered o’er my head I didn’t count the days All was right in my little world In so many little ways But time slips away my friends Cherish every day We never know when the bell will toll And loved ones will go away Time slips away my friends Time slips away. Soon the babe will be a man Friends will come and go Sunny days will turn to rain The future we don’t know We think life will go on forever We have time to say goodbye We put off till tomorrow We’ll do it bye and bye But Time slips away my friends Cherish every day We never know when the bell will toll And loved ones will go away But Time slips away my friends Yes time slips away The house now is empty Children have long gone My love was called to heaven I’ve no one to lean upon I always meant to keep in touch With old friends I used to know Now we’ve drifted apart And Oh…I miss them so! Yes, Time slips away my friends Cherish every day We never know when the bell will toll So say “I love you” every day Nurture your friendships dearly Hold your loved ones tight Show how much they mean to you Before you say goodnight Yes time slips away my friends Cherish every day We never know when the bell will toll For we were never meant to stay. Yes...time slips away my friends Time...just slips... away! Copyright©2011 Beatrice Boyle (All rights reserved) ------ Grandma Bea
