Time Is Near Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Time Is Near



The leaves are falling,
birds in song

Memory lingers,
tomorrow gone

A promise spoken,
solemn vow

The present honored,
faith avowed

Years enlighten,
age sets in

Youth remembered,
deep within

Gates now beckon,
pearl's endear

Hearts unburdened
—time is near

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April,2017)
