Memories of Clementine

 (A lone voice whispers.)

I still see you

As time goes by

As true to self

As starlings fly 

In the night sky

A pure soul

Alive by God's decree 

In my mind's eye

And it stirs 

Such elegant memories 

As your drum beats

Taking me 

To old happier places

As seconds flow

As straight as a crow

Where we meet

Under a never-ending sun

For memories

Like love

Never truly dies

And like a sweet poetic kiss 

Underneath a rare midnight sun 

Always remember

Whatever you may hear 

On the grapevine

I'll always treasure 

The time you were mine

For what we had

Many can't define

Because ours

Was the storyline 

Of 

The Meeting of The Mage and His Concubine
