TURNING PAGES
Turning Pages
My heart did slumber in the night
my spirit seal among the sea as I sleep
I had no human fears
I had nothing to worry about
Life has taken it's last stand
And dreams is a place for life
It seem'd a thing that could not feel
The touch of earthly years
Where tears touched the eyes
Oh silence is where I lay to sleep
No motion for my body to feel
My daily life had taken a turn
I now neither hear nor sees
Only my years of thoughts and my
writing of ink is what is left of me
Roll'd round in earth like autumn leaves
With rocks, and stones, and trees maybe
Oh life is something of dreams.
