Thereby Go I

They the deer loomed by,

As though slipping through the sky,

The sight was but a glemse,

Hurry, hurry,

Seemed to be,

Just the ruffles passed the tree,

Questioning did I really hear that sneeze and snort?,

Sometimes life goes by so fast,

The view might as well be in a broken looking glass,

Gauntlet ran,

And now the past,

The best seems are the ones memories stream,

Slipping by again,

Before the end,

Maybe just a dream,

Oh the thought says I,

In hallow glemses of lives span,

Some run away because they can,

Peace is held in the heart not in the hand,

God laid the foundation for man,

Did you wake again today stuck in times gone by?,

Or was that really a deer loomed by,

The heart lets out a quiet sigh,

Where it not for God,

There by go I
