” A MOMENT IN THE SUN”

Has It always been mine since the beginning of time,

I was born to run, I was born to chase the wind, so I run.

I’ve walked along the shore, my feet wet in the sand,

Holding hands, by myself I stand alone, a man.

There’s been at times much fun, I am not done,

Friends’ and loved ones vanished as the hour glass runs.

When will It come I ask! this moment, my moment In the sun.

It was yesterday, appeared again today, did I not see,

Tomorrow will I wonder when It Is to be as It lives all around me.

I had dreams of a girl once upon a time, she came to visit me,

She came to say hi, for just a moment in time, a moment gone by.

I’ve had a moment in the sun, a moment to run, to chase the wind,

I’ve had a love whom went away with the passing day, she flies.

My journey takes me to a place but who follows behind,

On another day will catch me, slow down to that which may be.
