Time and Bygone Days

So far away from now
     and by chance, perhaps, somehow,
Dreams come through foggy haze
     of both time and bygone days.
Younger then was our youth,
     outweighed by nought but the truth;
Hidden from future’s glare
     was an innocence once rare.

Beauty shifts through the mind,
     no longer is it confined;
Morning alters the view
     seen by eyes of fading blue.
So quickly life is changed
     on ageing paths re-arranged;
We forget where and when
     all of those days did begin.
