The Hourglass Poem by Bonnie Collins

The Hourglass

Rating: 5.0


An hourglass of memories lies
beneath our souls

Countless moments of joy shared
by two hearts bonded into one

My heart raced against yours, how
you would laugh and tell me yours
was faster, it was, as you were the
one to reach the finish line first

Well knowing you would be making
the mistake of your life, could I dare
tell you so? ?

So for now, you will have to share
this hourglass with me, when you
visit, please remember not to lock
the door.........

Fond reveries with a tinge of sadness. The hourglass is an apt metaphor. Rgds, Ivan
