We Meet Them Again

Old memories can give rise to nostalgic tears
When they take us back the Seasons to the long gone years
The boys and the girls of your childhood where are they today
They too have grown older none young ever stay

Shrike Thrushes

Grayish brown blackbird sized birds with a beautiful whistling song
Once seen and once heard you never again get them wrong
Near trees and tall bushes they seemingly like to stay
Gray shrike thrushes i see and hear often though not every day

Young Harry

Not one of the admired young men of the town
Nor he does not feel any desire for renown
Yet young Harry in his early twenties is kind in his own way
That there is more to a man than being financially successful only true for to say
...

Wise

Wise people grow older we age by the day
But not everyone grows wiser only true to say
It is a known fact as most would realize
That a young person can be very wise

By Mushera In January

The weather forecast does have rain for today
And behind the low gray clouds the sun hidden away
A chilly though dry morning of around five degrees
