Journey Through Time





Today one goes back in his mind

Takes a look at the past with so much regret

From the cradle to the grave, this journey through time

For those that have returned his love, he’s forever in their debt



Oh he has remembered the past loves

For they haunt him night and day

There was a time when they were kind

They loved him along the way



Reflections are often bitter

Hard for him to accept their taste

Perhaps when this life’s lost its glitter

They will be easier for him to face



He’s watched the northern lights dance

While he hummed a lonely tune

Echoed another’s heart in romance

When loves tree was in full bloom



Known the joy of a boy

The most precious one ever in his life

Raced the sun and came undone

Faced the struggle and strife



The sacred love of his son

Has kept him going through it all

For the love of the “Little Man” one

Has made him able to stand tall



And someday he knows if it’s God’s will

This journey through this time will end in peace

They’ll be no more troubled times in this life for him to deal

That God’s love will never ever cease



And as his time of reflection

Will someday come to a close

His journey through his past with love and affection

With you, to share this tale, he has chose



May God bless you all…
