There'll Come a Time

There'll come a time
When life will be no more
And memories of man
Will fade behind a closing door,
The world barren
And empty - as before,
Yet, through infinite space
Will linger on an ancient lore,
The music of the spheres
Will sound its score
That in this great galactic space
On one small planet - earth
Once lived and loved a noble race,
Endowed with intellect and grace...
