Yesterdays
When we were young
We ran in circles
We had fun
Skipping over puddles
As we played
We’d sing and dance in rain
Yestertimes
I often recall
We’d be hugging
All night long
I'd feel you breathing softly
Next to me
In vivid memories
The Yesternights
When we would walk
Along the beach
The silence talked
Arm in arm we'd danced
Each wave our lips romanced
Heaven was in the sands
Rushing under our feet
Now YesterSmiles
Come shining thru
Like the dawning light of blue
Welcome a new morning
Even though
The rain is falling
Our love be forever true...
In YesterSmiles of YOU
Her blue eyes once looked upon
me with an affectionate gleam;
But now that loving glow is gone
vanishing like yesternights dream.
Nothing, it’s said, lasts forever
only fools would think otherwise;
yet we accept this endeavor.
The truth lies exposed in their eyes-
outside windows into the soul
where words needn’t be said by each
to know that love was once ensouled
had now become just out of reach.
Nevertheless, life must press on
Even for a jilted love pawn.
