Renate Dartois

Time won't stand still.......

Time won’t stand still against my will

Another birthday ahead

Another year to add

Life is more precious than ever before

Now there are little grandchildren

That I adore

Time won’t stand still against my will

I look in the mirror

I notice the changes

And with each birthday

Age advances

Time won’t stand still against my will

I smile at the twins

So exited to grow

They do not know

Time won’t stand still against my will.

    This is excellent Renate! I love the theme of time. I like the narrative style and the gentle rhyhming scheme. Great work. Let’s see more! Loved it!.

    Time may not stand still but your beauty grows as what you create stands still in time.
