The Last Love Song Poem by Thomas Vaughan Jones

The Last Love Song

Rating: 5.0


Time has spun its mystery
The world falls fast away
Descending in a turning ball
Returning into clay
Please sing me one more love song
Enchant these waiting ears
Revive that magic melody
To serenade our years
Hold out your hand and touch me
So that my heart will know
The songs we sang together
Once more, before we go.
