Age to youth a cryptic message

Shades of white fill the sky
Blue fades to gray
Asks you shall revive
No time left to plead
So as I run across another sun
My feet do not touch ground
They do not make a sound


My friends as the day comes for me
I take the ride in roll and hide
We were special you and I
We feed our hopes
And took the pride
Kept locked up inside

I hear the birds sing
Flowers open up to spring
In the fail of night
We still see the light
Like a glowing diamond sings
It pulls the gold of flight

Rest where you can
Little heart large arms
Fingers touch the man
Crust of earth dribbles down
In the middle of singing now
Past the old gate taps play
Begins another day

You know it's hard to measure fate
As the will of time is seldom late
It travels at a new pace beyond
My road satin and silk flow
To a new face

Heard the bell as the church did tell me to sleep well
In her face age time we did erase and ran with the wind
Hand in hand again tasted the love of youth and white dove
No gift large or small consumes like the wait of suddenly

Shades of white fill the sky
Blue fades to gray
Asks you shall revive
Wind and spirit a live
In her tiny heart
That is where the new
It starts
