Dance Neath a Diamond Pointed Sky

Do the years speak to you Looking back as away they flew Did you dance neath a diamond pointed sky Or at other times wiped a tear from your eye When you dream about your life Do you only see the trouble and strife Or are you lost in your loneliness Where your memories were not the best In your twilight hours do you wander far Staring up at the sun from where you are Or do you seek some shady place Resting wearily as your memories do race So gather up your remaining glad bags And forget al those things that made you sad Walking straight ahead not looking left or right Knowing when it is all weighed you were ready for the fight. © Paul Warren Poetry
