Stem Flow of Blood

Final chapter, 
Shadow cast, 
Time is now,
Soon is last,

Given all to all,
Protection and love,
Close, the lesser known, 
More than he above,

A listening ear,
A hand to lend, 
Nought to sixty, 
Be it guardian or friend, 

But, tired is mind,
As Pages turn,
Life's lessons, 
Mine to learn, 

So, to take a breath,
Self needs love,
Less is more , 
Stem flow of blood,
