Walk the Road to Yesterday

by Kathy McKnight - Gemini

Aged by years, her time had come to 
  leave this world and pass on.
To leave this place of December and May
  to walk the road to Yesterday.
Her life had been wellspent as one
  who nurtures others dreams and some 
Times even her own who now walks the 
  road to Yesterday.

She wants the world of today no more,
  her family and friends have left the floor
And she no longer wants to stay, so she walks
  the road to Yeaterday.
Where she might once again have youth
  and no longer want for any, forsooth.
And there she'll remain till the end of 
  Earth's day once she's walked the road to Yesterday.
