Time It Was And What A Time It Was

can you imagine us years from today
sharing a park bench quietly?
how terribly strange to be seventy...*

Simon and Garfunkel: Old Friends * / Bookends **

time it was,
and what a time it was.
it was
a time of innocence,
a time of confidences.
long ago, it must be,
i have a photograph.
preserve your memories.
they're all that's left you. **

MY HEART BROKE LOOSE
ON THE WIND

"POEM FOR MY BIRTHDAY"


AND WE GET OLDER
