When Dreams FadeA Poem by Gerry Legisterwhen I am nearer the ending of my lifeFaith alone will not take you home When we leave, and our dreams fade, From above to go under the tombstone, Hope remains that prayers had made. By simple sound, we gain Gods attention Before many dreams come along, Life sometimes is live in seclusion, Soon they too will be gone, leaving an unsung song. Memories will show them where I lie, When History tell them that I am no more. Words will haunt them until I die, And my ashes pour out over the shore. As I was the person I wanted to be, My dreams have gone along with me. © 2017 Gerry Legister |
