Time Can'T Change This Heart O'Mine Poem by Leria Hawkins

Time does not erase the wind
Alight my windowpane
No more than time to chase the clouds
Or stop the winter’s rain
The midday tide can’t wash away
The remnants of this dream
No more than midnights rushing waves
Can change its youthful themes
The burning of my very core
Still flames with love no doubt
And yet the years go rushing by
While I still do without
A twinkling in the moonlit skies
My mind it tarries still
Thinking of my long lost love
Of this, it always will
