Poems of Samuel E. Stone


BACK        NEXT

Nature of Time

All the yesterdays are gone,
lost in the darkness of night,
alone with memories we long,
of happiness that were bright.

Time is always on the move,
moments often pass you by,
it wasnft meant to be smooth,
when itfs gone we give a sigh.

Sadness consumes onefs soul,
when our life has been spent,
death always makes itfs toll,
wondering what it all meant.

It is merely a mortal illusion,
an invention of our own mind,
caught up in societyfs confusion,
underestimating the nature of time.

Our lives are over before we know,
gone is our young, youthful glow,
air turns cold and the wind blows,
from start to end, a picture show.
