Time occupies her beauty
Few gaze upon her in awe
Age like a winter day, too,
a wilted flower in May

I have the right to be mad, while differing
with gladness that befit past years...
A loving wife to him and lived to
bear children in his honor, only to

have death as in- kind payment
still loathing the ever-present clock that stopped.
O’ my how anger envies happiness
Every speck of contentment diverge, where to….

O’ how the heavens stores a thousand memories
Return, return, you wandering things ago:
when I fell into your open arms
Thence our arms making a whole…

As I sit swinging back and forth
Recalling summer breeze,
as wind blow away time,
minus delight in mid-ambiguity
