A Decade Since

As it may seem you were not seen And many a spring, many an autumn Many a summer and many a winter Have passed but not unseen and solitary For days are profound and uncanny They come with you daily And awaken my memory As I longed to talk to you unmindful of century Yet the distance lingers in my mind Could I but measure precisely indeed And had I but wheels to move miles And wings to soar highs And oars to row deeps I would have been there since But as memory travels faster and love fastest Thus will you stay ever closest and ever dearest to my heart
