All it takes is a passing Shadow
All it takes is a passing shadow, as a cloud moves across the sun,
to remind us yesterday has gone, and a new day has begun.
For although the blossoms may tumble and leaves scatter in the breeze,
what will never ever fade is the most precious memories.
We think about what might have been and why fate allows the happiness of former days to be touched with sadness now,
but like the ending of the day just after the sun has set.
We know that deep within our hearts we never will forget,
and that is when we realize
the footsteps that name has been left behind,
although they cannot be re-filled, they hold memories,
of the warmest and most wonderful kind
