In the Blink of an Eye

Thinking back on the days of my life,
From the days of my youth to now,
Of the good folks I have met on the many crossroads of my long life,
Faded memories that seem to be from an old backroad in my mind,
That will be gone from my memory soon, and be
left behind.

Recalling dear ones, seems I was just there with them yesterday;
Can still hear their laughter, can still see the smile & gleam in their eyes,
But now it seems they were but a fleeting moment in time,
In the lifetime of my life that seems to have flown by,
All within a blink of an eye.

A word of thanks to my Cousin Neto for putting this idea into my head, and inspiring me into writing this about life flowing by so quickly, just like as they say, in the blink of an eye!

So, thank you, Primo Neto!
