I Ran Into Yester-Years

I ran into the yester-years and found the father of fears lingering in the lore of lies sold to our simple skies. I turned back to face the future peeping at its pleasant picture; Inscribed on an immortal image …The symbol of a sincere sage I looked around to toast today Wooing its wealth all the way; Now I know, I’ll never neglect My past, present and prospect!

You approached this poem in a most interesting way. VEry clever one! thanks for that win, Adeleke. Nice to see you here. My back just kills me when I do this, stay so long at Soup.
