Twilight

Is it today now or yesterday still? Is it time already for morning pill? hazy light filters in through the window, as crimson gathers over distant hill! Can’t tell early dawn from the evening glow, for me time stands still and the day is slow, from downstairs sound of kitchen plying food, my rumbling hunger signals time to go! I walk in to dinning hall, panelled wood, smiling faces greet me as sweet as could, Coffee, bread, favourite jam and honey, they wish me a morning, morning so good! Some days I get visitors too many, Some other days there are hardly any, young girl comes often with two little tots, When daughter’s name fails you, it’s not funny! My son is very tall has grown so smart, Like his dead mother very good at heart, He brings little ones to play with grandpa, they ride on my back playing horse and cart! flickering thoughts..how memory ages raw, life as it flows has to obey time’s law, yet Love finds a way to overcome this flaw, Love finds a way to overcome this flaw!
