The Ages

 

 

As

the years

in our lives

let go, so the

time of the ages

flow, and as our soul in

motion travels with the years

of memories and sorrow's tears,

we will soon rest in the shadows, for

we are like the descending sun; as stars

faintly falling throughout the universe,

echoes gently traced in living verse 

of yesterdays in layered tiers;

and the veil falls upon the

hidden mysterious

as we die, and yet

the heavens will

supplant us

with new

birth.
