Notes About The Poem


 

 

Dedication: This poem is for my PoetrySoup friend Jan Allison wishing you all the best.

Just For You

JUST FOR YOU
(For Jan Allison)



Time moves so fast
Things do not last


Just for a while
We style a smile


Write a verse here
Claim joy and cheer


And yet we know
Age comes to show


Brief shadows cast
Good times now past


Let love abide
Right by our side


For gone too soon
Our dreams at noon
