For
The
Sun,
The
Day
Not
Yet
Begun,
Counting
Up
Memories
Stacked
One
On
One,
Each
Dearly
Loved,
But
Gone.
At
Most,
Only
A
Distant
Fragrance
Lingers,
Transparent,
Fleeting
Fingers,
Youth’s
Ghost,
Myself
The
Host.
Waiting
For The Sun, The Day Not Yet Begun, Counting Up Memories Stacked One On One, Each Dearly Loved, But Gone. At Most, Only A Distant Fragrance Lingers, Transparent, Fleeting Fingers, Youth’s Ghost, Myself The Host.
