time will remain proud

walking at the same pace

with the same music

and singing the same melody

will come with joy,

with satisfaction

look through the door lock

will come and perch in memory

will be free and perpetual

in the intermittent looks in the mirror

see your reflection

see it wiser

stronger

with a big smile of love

time joins and

a stranger happens to become someone known

time will tell

welcome

will greet enthusiastically

as if much of the way

was traveled

as if this reflex returned love

knowledge, dreams

and letters

with messages of encouragement

with messages to celebrate life

with messages to follow

contemplating the magic of

a sunrise.
