Quiet Night

A child of the mind
   The morning comes  
On wings of time

Past and present 
   Evermore

The future will arise

With time the mind 
   May falter

Memories to fade

Reflections become dim
   To wane

The heart on quiet night

Very well written Terry! The passage of time and the diminishing of thoughts are indeed poignant writes. Well stated!
