The days have come and gone
With only memories of my past
As my childhood seemed to fade away
And carefree days don’t seem to last
The wrinkles became more noticed
My hair turned grey to white
My eyes began to thin

It was dusk to early morning
When I first felt the alarm
As we searched for words unspoken
When you touched me on the arm
We have passed our last horizon
I have no more tears to shed
Draw the shades down on the window
Put this old man... – by Mark Alan Klein | 46 Views added 1 month ago

A moment flashes by
And did We notice it was gone
They pass at quantum speed
Not recognizing one from the other
Congregating as memories
We cherish them good or bad
Into days months and years
Scrutinized Harshly
As new moments are... – by Mark A Klein | 52 Views added 3 months ago

That little kiss in the morning
It may be just a peck
Another in the evening
Gives me goosebumps on my neck
It may be just that simple
That you love me everyday
Cause a peck is worth a million
Signs of love you send my way
I’d be lost... – by Mark A Klein | 43 Views added 4 months ago

Fair thee well my southern land
Home of old
Not much left of her
But memories of what once was
Vacant lots where chapels stood
Left barren and flat
Broken brick and glass
Are now their foundation
Bustling streets can be seen
In books... – by Mark A. Klein | 102 Views added 5 months ago

The day has come that you walked down the aisle
To grab ahold the hand of my firstborn child
As your father walked you down
With your vale laced in white
All of us in the room thought
“oh, what a beautiful sight”
My son stood proud to... – by Mark A. Klein | 47 Views added 5 months ago

If today I found out I had cancer
Who would I tell
Who wants to know
Who gives a damn
I don’t want any sympothy
No fake cry’s of pain
I know where I’ve been
And who’s been there with me
Why do I need casual friends now
Or did I need... – by Mark A Klein | 55 Views added 10 months ago

Memories shattered
as time walks by
Distant as the stars with just a glimmer of the past
Guilt engulfs me for moving on
That I share happiness
So I should be damned
Pestilence be upon me
No more should I hold your picture
To think I... – by Mark A. Klein | 49 Views added 1 year ago

There is not malice or Ill intent looming in the shadows
Nor a glimpse of jealous pride that would diminish that which is you
Only gracious humility for the experience shared
Knowing wonder has not passed me by
That you were sent to be part... – by Mark A. Klein | 52 Views added 1 year ago

Isn’t this day grand
That unites us two
Where you take me
And I take you
When our lives become entwined
With a steadfast holy vow
For the day is really here
The times upon us now
When you walk down the aisle
To join me hand in hand

Oh look at the lights
The balls and the bells
So many nice presents
Wrapped up in their shells
The Smell of the candles
And the cookies just baked
Fresh coffee is brewing
Made to help us awake
As we gather around
For the fun to begin

The air is turning chilly
The leaves are almost gone
Sky’s are turning grey at dusk
And Frost is on the lawn
The season of thanksgiving
Has come and gone again
It’s time to turn to giving
And ring a new season in
A birthday like no... – by Mark A. Klein | 41 Views added 1 year ago

Close my eyes and paint my face
I shan’t leave this world without a trace
Dress me in my best attire
So all my guests can see me
Say things that I so like to hear
Remember times that we hold dear
That we can say our last farewell

When tears flowed from my eyes
I wrote this in its purest form
I wrote these lines for you
I wrote from past excursions
I wrote from present dreams
For all with best intentions
