You are my vintage photograph,
where our years stand yellowed and green.
A country swept dewy zephyr you appear,
wonder what you did intervene.
There was a sweep of gold dust here,
I saw the sun's foolhardy preen.
I would sing, but I dont want the pixies to know,
where we hid all that sepia sheen.
"Donot stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there,I did not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle morning rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifitng rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Donot stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there,I did not die."

Let the amorphous treasure lay concealed,
May it turn crystalline before 'the clock' robs the queen.
beautiful the way you painted the picture.
red's romance established so beautifully through sepia, golden-brown and hints of green.
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Those olden days are kept in between sheets of cellophane, just to preserve what they have held.
Cheers!
