Time has a way


Time has a way of flowing by — 
a stream curling and meandering

like your hair when we first met

My friends are getting old
I know we are just one 

bad fall away 

It was a simpler world 
back then.  We took 

one thing at a time.

We didn’t know what 
we had when we had it.

Tomorrow was around the corner.

We ate what we wanted,
slept late, let the sun shine

in through the open window

When you go leave me 
your leather jacket 

with the silver buttons

Maybe that book of poetry
you write in everyday

and those boots you wore
when you told the boss

just where he could go
