Fading.
Posted in Age on September 29th, 2005Watch now before you blink
Don’t miss the twinkling shards,
The spin against the water’s cloak -
No number counts these thoughts you think.
Catch now their roaring chains of light
Afore the smudden dull of winter night
Before the afterwards of summertide
Such ancient thrills that now evoke,
Must fade like silvered ink -
Return these borrowed hours
Masking season’s interlink.
