Not everyone but everything -
That you will long for I would think
Not those who are 'few and far between'
But a rusty bench, an apple tree,
A boat sailing to the sea:
All simple things you used to know
Before to 'distant spheres' you go.
Remember - set a precedent -
Surcease of sorrow at the end,
Red morning tram - away it went -
A fluffy snowball in you hand
And our shadow on the sand.
Oh, Life, reveals it, try to teach
How could I take a fragrant peach
Or melting icicle in my mouth
To the 'misty valleys' of the dreams -
Not so easy how it seems
try and remember on a whim
The mouldy red bricks of the house
And tell the fabled seraphim:
Remember - set a precedent -
Surcease of sorrow at the end,
Red morning tram - away it went -
A fluffy snowball in you hand
And our shadow on the sand.
