Melodies Unbroken By Time

Pause

Birds chirp and sing a sweet refrain
Longing for return on the wind
Yes, as simple as that it seems
No! More a wish that it be so

To walk in the sun by the lake
Pausing to watch the geese at play
A joy to see them two by two

Sit and ponder on this journey
For a heart heavy with yearning
From choices lost along the way
Never found as time passes on

Then to move on to see the band
Pause….
none to walk with hand in hand
Or hold and kiss in summer rain

Pause…
listen…
for songs on the breeze
Melodies unbroken by time
Pause…
listen…
replies float on by
Pause…
listen…
lest yours will be lost
