Tapestry
A memory caught upon the tapestry of time,
Dark grey and faded, silent eyes, forgotten stare
A smile so warm from lips that tender kissed upon my face,
But now so still beneath a silver frame that only I can share.
Forever encased in a beauty so sublime
Dulled in black and white
A picture formed from flash of light
That lay so still beneath the film of a ghostly silver mist,
Where no creases in her tender flesh did show the wounds of time
An ageless vision, grim shadows cannot cover
Although you sleep and forever keep inside God’s realm
Of eternal bliss
I remember sunlit years when you and I were lovers
So upon the polished crystal glass I imprint a loving kiss.
