As she read the letter she held
it brought back a fleeting memory of him
of their last night together on the beach
when they were walking under the velvet skies

As the salty tears rolled down her cheeks
she could see in her minds eye a misty portrait
of his face, as he looked lovingly into her eyes
and she remembered the precious love they shared.....

Yeah I know what you mean... having no love life means I must either channel memories of the past or make it up. Usaully the past or past crushes kicking me in the but. Uhggggg.

Guys can be idiots at time.....

Nope, Dixie, it's not about anybody I know.
Just some words that were supposed to be in
a poem in a poetry group I joined. Thanks for reading.

and replying.

sigh....so good to know it's just a writing....sad and aching....

~~**~~
The sound of silence calls,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
The echo of our souls meet

Hi Lauren.  
Yep, it's just writing, thank goodness.
Like I said above, it was an assignment in this
poetry group I joined. There were 10 words
that had to have a poem made from them. This
was the original one I wrote, except for
the word "evanescent".
"An evanescent memory" didn't sound like
me witing, though, so I took it out here. LOL
Love ya, lady.
Hugs,
Ethel

Ethel...Enjoyed. Thank goodness for our free roaming mind, it allows us to be or write about anything we can imagine and we become a part of it....Paul
