That Was Then

a poem by thenorm

 

In a field of daises,

Lilies,

Blue Children waltzed to my

Melody; I, in flowing shadows

Loved O-So endlessly.

But that was a long,

Long time ago;

That was Then…This Is Now.

And the Sunset

Waited for me

As I made my way

To The Sea; the colors

Danced Only For Me. I knew

Peace, as the Dove

Came back to me.

But that was a long, long time ago;

That was Then…This Is Now.

And I, in my innocence

Believed your Harmony Song;

It was…Just…A Song.

And I was Swept,

Carried Away, when I thought you meant

…well…Never Mind…

It was such a long,

Long time ago.

I must be Stronger now.

As a tear Falls

From My Soul,

I Do Know…that

That…Was Then…and This

Is Now.

Forever.
