Changes Tell Us The Time
The years that passed
The months that were happy
and decent
The days we believe were recent
and the moments sad , tense and terrifying;
Changes Tell Us The Time
So much is lost-
which I called
mine;
the laughter, the giggles
and the shreiks-
the silent heads down
and 'stand in line',
The innocent pensive silences
The standing and talking against fences,
Changes Tell Us The Time,
In moments captured in pictures,
The outlook fronts and fixtures
The black and white color mixtures,
See how the verandah and the V shaped frieze
Is all straight and creased
Gone is the Victorian Stature and Grace
OH How changed is the once fine place!
And I wonder and wonder and think
It seems as if it all happened in a blink'
But as I slowly trace the traces
I realise that recent years were more than nine
Certainly CHANGES Tell Us The Time;
