Mirror of time

I am swathed in nostalgia swaddled in fond memories

when I look at the mirror of time

recount, niceties of gone by while 

those were the days!

filled with fun and frolic

vistas of unbridled joys

how quickly time evanescence!

from prime of youth to twilight years

it strode past like a wink

leaving me to swoon over endless reveries

I am not done yet...

ready to grab fistful happiness

let the humming sands under my feet recede

I will not let the melancholic turn get in

nor allow my faith and belief to deter and dwindle.
