People of long ago left their mark on all of us today.

So what are we really?
Bonded albums of antiquity—
Of peoples long long ago.

A collected cache
Of generations past—
Albums of long ago.

Oft were these folks unprepared
Trials and want left them scared—
Hopeful spirits of long long ago.

Like an ocean atoll,
This courageous ring of souls—
Brave people of long ago.

They ring our thinking;
Sacred voices still singing—
Their science of long, long ago.

We each live a history
That joins with past memories—
Of people long ago.

And when our album is closed,
We will linger as echoes—
Like peoples of long long ago
