The End of the Road

I remember all I'd heard and seen
	As I walked down this path of mine.
I hear once again the hiss of the lean
	Snake, and the butterfly's soft whine.

I remember all the passing seasons
	Whether it was sumer, autumn, winter, or spring,
I recall my memories in tons,
	The either the snow or sun did bring.

I remember every passing hour
	Of the times I walked down this way,
I see once more every single flower
	That I picked in each passing day.

I remember every moment I did sieze;
	Every single seed I reaped and sowed
I remembar all my precious memories
	And I sigh, as I face the end of the road.
