"JUST AN ECHO"


 If you listen carefully your memories can be heard,


 Words' and phrases, spoken or listened to are recorded.


 Thoughts' In your head feel at times louder, just an 
 Echo,

 Sounds' and scenes from a lifetime played over, can you 
 Hear.

 Noises from children playing back when just a child, 
 Just a child,

 Friends' from long ago, just an echo In time, listen, they 
 Can be heard.

 In the span of a lifetime like the wind moving by,  
 Created In an instance,

 An echo In time we will be, just an echo In time for you 
 And me.
