Another hour gone!
Where did it go?
When did it become a year,
Or for that matter,
Several years,
Where do I look for you?
Oh! The hour gone-by!
Are you a fleeting moment,
In the depth of my heart,
In the spindles,
of my sleep!
In the recess
of my mind!
Or are you lurking?
The hour gone-by
Somewhere around,
Behind the eyes,
In the ears,
Waiting, laughing
Teasing, crying?
Wanting a release,
From the time!
No longer happy
To be an hour,
Running to be a memoir
Of the sun’s ray
Or the moon’s shine
Or the broad smile
That welcomes 2020!
