WITH SETTING SUN

Entry for Khalish's "POETRY IN RHYME - RHYTHM CONTEST-winner" 

WITH SETTING SUN

Folly of youth,
The days pass fast
But built on truth
Will ever last.
~
They will not cry
But always smile,
Or at least try
For a long while.
~
It was as fine
In times of love
As the sunshine,
Born from above.
~
This love, so shared
Would always last;
The way they cared,
A lifetime passed.
~
They said goodbye,
Their time was done
But would not cry-
With setting sun.
