The Guardian Of Forever Poem by Jim Milks

I am the guardian of forever, the keeper of tomorrows
The echo of the past, and protector of sorrows
I remember everyone that has come before
All that have step in and out of my door

All the memories I hold inside
Memories of love, and quiet times
Are locked away and there they shall reside
There they are a wonder to behold

I am the guardian of forever, the keeper of dreams
From me knowledge flows like a stream
I gather all that are lost, or that have gone away
Safe for forever and a day

Memories of sunshine and of rain
Seen in the soft light of the past
Blend together and ease the pain
Every storm and ache fades away and never lasts
