Marking Time Poem by Jodie Hardy

Marking Time

Rating: 5.0


There it stands
Never moving less the wind blows
In my mind it stands tall and strong
A visual marker of the time since you passed
Besides I envision a river
Time flowing, moving us all forward
Though your tree stays there in the sacred spot
Growing
Marking time..

Never will I forget
The time we spent together
The memories we made
Our childish ways

Time and tide waits for no man. The tree will remain standing in all of its splendor. Just like the love that withstands the test of time so is like the tree that stands tall with strong roots. nice.
