spring water

Time passes
a barnacle
in the mind

a heart
without eyes
has no sense
of time

The wind
the rain
a mirror’s reflection
on a face

years of playing
in summer winds
and winter storms

a heart still sings
youth filled
tunes
the legs
the feet
no longer
move in tempo

reminiscing upon
memories
that fill the glass
with spring water
of youth
