Evermore

Time marks everything

No matter how brightly it is that

We dream ~

Swept away amid its hands

Crystal glass in crystal sands...

Gravitations ferris wheel, turning

As seconds of moments smile their last

And no one knows but whom can know

Like rain that gently washes all away

Leaning towards the skies which gaze

To breathe this light in that which fades...

This almost reminds me of the opening statements of the soap opera the guiding light. I wish I could recall it word for word no but I can't. I think it went a bit like this. life passes like grains of sand slipping through the hour glass as life marches forward with the hands of time. I know that isn't it but something like it. TLee
