Lorna

Handful of Biscuits

The biscuits before you

Are all that I brought 

All that might tempt you

All that you want

 

I often worry

Do you know I\'m still here

That you loved me once

That you held me dear

 

That together we raced

Through life\'s halcyon lights

And then found the peace of

The soft summer nights

 

We had it all then

And I can still hear

The echoes of laughter

Adventures and tears

 

But time gallops swiftly

We rode past the sun

We outraced the wind

And now your race is done

 

All that you own

At this moment in time

Is that handful of biscuits

And this heart of mine
