Longer days

Although the days' length extends
your days grow shorter
although manfully battling on
the fatigue creeps closer

Spring has now come
and you enjoy its light
the leaves unfolding
the flowers coming out

Green fingers feel
their way around
to pretty up
your home of long years

Many have now gone on ahead
and memories remain
not many now remain
who have shared your years

As the darkness falls
I know what will transpire
but I cannot yet let go
although I feel I must
