Echoed a sound lasted, I heard, an echoed a sound lasted
My village around the borderland, estranged
Mountain from the other side, rejoiced within gray shaded area to bloom
Echoed the echo of the midnight hymn, darkened a shade, deeper fill in xanthosis, lasted beyond the yonder valley o'er the meadow, fall color blossomed then.
Echoed a sound lasted, I heard, an echoed a sound lasted
Eavesdrop and a try

Their Marriage Lasted 388 Days
Their marriage lasted three hundred and eighty-eight days.
This was two hundred and eight days longer than most thought it could.
I showed this number to those who had predicted six months.
Gloating a bit for I had figured it would last a bit over a year.
So many losses though; a grandma and a grandpa losing their grandchildren

It Was Good While It Lasted-
It was good while it lasted... the smell of bacon the sniff of a watermelon fresh cut morning grasses. The caressing of my lover living young then growing old together. The whims of the a newborn baby. Those the fluorescent sweet flowers daffodils, roses, tulips, lavender. Though a tear running down my cheek. The calming

Why Has the Christmas Joy Only Lasted For One Day
The decorations on the Christmas Tree
were spectacular, all seemed a wonderland
created not only for children who love presents;
although the snow did not fall, it still looked magical...
who could have wished for a more perfect scene?
Why has the Christmas joy lasted only for one day?
The dazzling lights and the laughter of Santa
lifted spirits up, they all

Good While It Lasted-
It was good while it lasted
The grass is always greener after the fire
it was good while it lasted
Skyscrapers touching stomach of the clouds
Winds whistling loud
it was good while it lasted
The early spring morning
Bird singing, flowers glowing
Until this Sun...
Burning scorching
covered by the clouds
Thunder and lightning

Good While It Lasted-
It was good while it lasted
After the fire ultraviolet
It was good while it lasted
The grass Is Always Greener
Terrestrial arena
Boll of cotton
Hope miss- mistrusting
It was good while it lasted
Watermelon in the lily of the valley
Ever so sadly Melancholy Humanity

While It Lasted
While It Lasted
Sharon Maria Moemise
It was just a call for attention
That continued for years by extension
The most of what was companionship
The rest got lost, I guess we let it slip.
Complacency replaced all traces of romance
Regard for one's feelings turned to ignorance
It was over almost as soon as it started
That'sprobably why I'm not broken-hearted
Love? We both

Sadness Lasted Two Whole Days
And then paper went silent
leaving same sensation
again that bloody feeling of
big mountain exploding in heat inside my armour plate
just couldn't write the words
with no love among them
their people beheaded one of mine
now trough mine borders theirs screamed for salvation
mine theirs
ours
where did we displaced ours
when
how
always the same in that vicious circle
love and hate

If Only Good Things Lasted
Summer is finally coming to an end;
Back to teachers and an old or new friend.
Leaves on the trees, are beginning to fall;
Hoping its worth the hurt after all.
Memories made, slowly fading away;
Snow covering flowers from the month of may.
Upset in the cold that a flower eventually dies;
Searching the world, for that look in your eyes.

Love Lasted For Awhile
Fruitful with cheer
I smile from over here
She gave me a smile
Love lasted for awhile
Life is worth living
She holds my hand forgiving
I reach out to her
She closes the door
I open myself to her
She doesn’t respond, I abhor
We still carry on
As if love can create a dawn
I rely on her strength
To get me through in length
I hold

The Love That Lasted a Night
Imagine a lovely garden, tea for two, and this story . . .
I had never seen anyone like him before in my life. We met on a Thursday... or was it a Tuesday...? It was a Tuesday. I was going to the copy machine at work, you know where I work right? Yeah, that
