Memories of other lives, falling
In crystal ball droplets
From endings
Seamlessly
Passed on
To new beginnings,
Remembering
The oft repeated song,
To join
The river once again
Meandering along.

Memories of other dreams, returning
In green mossy blankets
From visions
Eternally
Passed on
To new beginnings,
Magnificent
Beneath the morning sky,
Smiling on
The river once again
As it goes drifting by.

Memories growing slowly, blossoming
In fields of poppy fire
From spirits
Continually
Passed on
To new beginnings,
So wonderful
The tide of life still sings,
Echoed on
The river once again
The joy of birth it brings.

Memories whole again, laughing
In happy realisation
From pages
Of evermore
Passed on
To new beginnings,
To rise anew
The way they did before,
To join
The river once again
Upon life’s golden shore…

I like the reiteration of various memories being passed on to new beginnings on the riverbanks. Lovely
