To the Ones we knew
Forever at rest. Awake in dreams.

To the ones we knew
Who smiled so sly,
Their voices staunch
Their shoulders slumped.
To the ones we knew
Who faded fast
The thrill of life
A vibrant youth.
The gift of life
So fragile, so short
The years pass fast
A sacred Winter.
The pause at dawn
A memory fades
The darkness sets,
Upon the ones we knew.
