One shade the more,
One companion the less;
A multitudinous mirror
Of reflected memory.
In perpetuity to store
One more face;
To recognise, to refer
In the album chronology.
A silent flitting shadow
Finds the darkened crack
In the mirror of the mind;
Stirring nostalgically.
Leaves disturbed anew
Fail to bring back
The light and sound
Atmospherically.
People once bound.
No longer found;
No longer around;
Confound.
A glance of shades;
Fading friends;
Greying grades
Of ignorance.
Ivy clinging stone
Informs the shade
The more alone
That there be laid:
In innocence;
In transience;
In abeyance;
In absence.
