The Past

by

Gerard Quain

Time speeding forward

Time speeding fast

Then their you have it

A place we call the past

A collection of pictures

Figurative snatches of time

Colourful in retrospection

Always ready to rose tinted dissection

A journey rushed

Is always incomplete

Its the bits that are missing

Always giving us a taste of the bittersweet

Time speeding forward

Time speeding fast

Then their you have it

A place we call the past
