Sir Walter Raleigh - The Conclusion

EVEN such is Time, that takes in trust 
Our youth, our joys, our all we have, 
And pays us but with earth and dust; 
   Who in the dark and silent grave, 
When we have wander'd all our ways, 
Shuts up the story of our days; 
But from this earth, this grave, this dust, 
My God shall raise me up, I trust.

Poet: Sir Walter Raleigh
Poem: The Conclusion

Comment 1 of 1, added on May 25th, 2009 at 5:29 AM.

I went on an inner journey into a forgotten life
And to my surprise I found a strange memory
A name came up in that moment of a long gone wife
It was in England a hard and ruthless century,
My name was for the time well known,
I remembered having written poetry for prosperity
About my adventures and courtings in a medieval town
Sailing over seas to new unknown territory.
My name still not forgotten until this day,
A fantasy or a memory? Who can say?
