Yesterday\'s Past

Hiding behind his writing,

he went from day to day

 

Whispering memories from yesterday’s past,

the truth in disarray

 

Buried in moments now borrowed,

the clock running shorter than long

 

All words out on pawn, tomorrow in hock

—his message forgotten and gone

Couplets Of Rhyme

 

An agreed upon history…

fables abound

 

To share in the memories,

what’s lost and then found

 

Our story rechristened,

linked moments in time

 

New legacy written

—in couplets of rhyme
