Fading View of Time

Listen to poem:
Fading View of Time David J Walker Dust covers most of the few Magical moments of childhood Rust is rife on all metal left exposed In the long life of my dormant bike And I suppose the memories are Meaningless to anyone else unless You were an eyewitness to the Same past times The clock ticks The clock tocks The clock chimes Another moment crosses the lines Leading to The fading view Of life

Very much enjoyed this rather sad poem! Had been thinking all day today and yesterday how it's pretty much downhill all the way now whether I live 1, 5, or 10 more years. If I could just touch what used to be for an hour, I think it would make me do happy. All the best to you, Devin A

Thank you, John. Yes, at my age (our age) the clock seems to be ever present.
