so goes my life--

In through the out door,
Then thinking some more
Wanting to recall
That which is better forgotten
Hearing a word, a song, or a rhyme.
Then, the time gets old,
And my mind begins to whirl.
So goes my life-
Love and life, lost to the wind,
But no ache upon my mind
Only more musing
And wanting for more reflections...
