A pixie could daydream her days away

Never noticing the time pass her by

And even the fairy who lives in the clock

Has to come out, occasionally, and try

To wake her, from her dreamy state

This is no easy task, for one so small

So, she decided to sit there, daydreaming, too

Into the night, tis when you dream, after all

Like hands on a clock

Through evolution of life

Nature takes her time

I could hear the pounding of your heartbeat

Like the pouring of the rain against this old house

Every inch, creaking, from the weight of the world

On shoulders that held more than they should

Taken in stride, as if this was your lot in this life

Never a complaint, you just went about your day

And night couldn’t come soon enough for you

Tired and weary, you had fallen fast asleep

Before I even had the chance to say thank you

For making my world a much better place to live

And this I know, as time passes, and days fade

You will always be the light that guides me

Shining within me, through my own darkest hours

Perchance to binge on Earthly time

A thought we humans find sublime

Still, we worry, this we must endure

A life that ends, of this we’re sure

Why rush, to get through every day

Those wasted hours, we threw away

Perhaps we need to slow it down

Take time to breathe, instead of drown

In things, that aren’t worth a dime

Turn back those dreaded sands of time

Take heed of this, I must implore

Before Heaven opens its only door

Her photograph, faded, sepia tones

A rose, shriveled, now brittle and dry

Memories of her many loving ways

Made it harder to say goodbye

Time goes by much too quickly

In a blink of an eye, she was gone

Always the blossom, in my garden of life

Now the flowers are wilted and drawn

To have her plant just one more seed

I’d give anything, to let her know

That she is the reason I am me

From her love I’ve continued to grow

 

In loving memory of my grandmother, Nana Rose (June 1973) I love you  and miss you more each day.   ❤
