There's no knowing what tomorrow brings <br />or what the autumn, winter, springs, <br />We only know youths twilight glow <br />and memories of long ago <br /> <br />The evening dwells upon our years <br />and summers song rings in our ears <br />it takes its toll upon our frames <br />with thoughts that kindle drawn out flames <br /> <br />We've seen them come and seen them go <br />the many shades of life we know <br />the bitter sweet, the smooth, the rough <br />advance till only, we and us.<br /><br />Charles M.
