Example
Time Goes By by Jez Farmer
Greying hair speaks of time
Years gone by in their prime
Yet eyes sparkle with mischief
Revealing inner belief
The memories remain
In happiness and pain
Of sunny days before rain
Reliving it all again
Greying hair speaks of time
Of nights dancing in rhyme
To beats of a walking cane
Of kissing you in the rain
My love, I found in my youth
Your beauty is still my truth
A Garret Poet
