This Road Of Memories

Through country roads in the darkness of my memories

To Carlisle and Concord

In pathways of ancient silence

And the ghostly breezes that drift through the pine woods

In midnight’s unreachable miles

Drive I onward in the darkness

Intrepid traveler on this road of memories

Through Wayland, Natick and Sherborn

Past stagecoach roads and graveyards

And the rustle of Autumn leaves

The memories of all of I’ve known

Drown in mystery fathoms of forgotten

Beneath Time’s passing indifference.
