I'm afraid I feel the urge to entertain you with another of my rare ventures in creativity. This one was intended to describe my feelings about a few short moments I would often share with a dear friend after closing up the Antique Mall for the day. It was a quiet calming time that usually washed the day trials and tribulations from my mind. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
A MOMENT IN TIME
Between My work and nightly sleep
a time of comfort seems to creep.
a time of comfort seems to creep.
just 30 minutes - one half hour
serves to calm and offer power.
speaking with a friend at ease
we sat together in the breeze.
we sipped hot drinks and watched the crowd.
Occasionally we thought out loud.
i talked and talked and rambled on
i would have kept her to the dawn.
i know not what i said to her
the time went by just like a blur.
i sensed her need to run and play
i knew i'd lose her anyway.
with heavy heart and racing mind
i said farewell i would not bind.
my friend she raced across the street
into the crowd a need to meet.
