There Was Once A Rosemary

Time savors its victory
For which I have no defense
So I spend the whiles delicately
In memories of you

I once thought the sea was telling
But no
It was just me listening
Listening for the sound of your smile

Your thick raven hair laying over my shoulder
Your dark eyes limpid and possessing
Slowly tracing paths to my own
Your soft comforting arms around me

Days are shorter now and shadows show the best of me
But I still see, feel, and smell the rapture
Of those days when time was more obedient
And we were so restless within it

Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

Those memories, they can be most rewarding, even though we sometimes have a tendency to exaggerate them.

Your poem is dreamy, one worth swooning over.

Very pretty.
