The Best Of Times
Time stands still for no one
All of the todays: past, present, future
Our friendship, companionship remain locked within
Special chambers; heart, mind and soul
The best of times cherished, treasured
Memories? Priceless, cognizant, alive
Exhilarating, enchanting, pleasant
Smiles, joyful laughter, sunrise to sunset
Even through our tears
Flickering lights-the time machine...vanish, return again? Faith
Those were the best of times
Loved shared, my faithful companion, confidant
Mountains vista's, remote corners where roads wind, trails lead
Towns, people, places, friendly, passive or agressive faces
There we trek obstales searching together
Etched in stone, a monent of time crossing galaxies-warp speed
Dance, parade in array..Slow time-laspe photography
Reality? Precious...Those were the best of times
