Time slips away like shifting

Posted on Sun, 12 Jun 2022

Time slips away like shifting sand, that's such a fitting sentiment. We never forget those loved ones that have passed over, but time has a way of healing the sad memories, so that we only recall those good times.

Inspiring poem Richard.

Clouds prowl the sky

Posted on Sun, 05 Jun 2022

Clouds prowl the sky
