Profusely my thoughts pass,
ever translucently fast,
sometimes I can't even react,
before they scurry away
to the past, which just was but
a moment ago.
Triumphantly they dash,
without a second chance,
for me to even snatch,
a parcel of this deed.
The specks of the muse,
really quite confused
to them I seem amused,
by all this foolish ruse,
but I'm not.
Just merely going on ,
while my thoughts scurry back,
to my memories holding fast,
unto me ever near.
so let me make this clear
if you should ever hear
or even to you appear
a memory of yesterday
don't let it pass away
grasp on and write it down
for it may  end today.

What words of wisdom wrapped up
in this neat little package.

'if you should ever hear
or even to you appear
a memory of yesterday
don't let it pass away
grasp on and write it down
for it may  end today.'


You've got that right !

thx Marge, it's so true though isn't it? how quickly time flies by so many memories gone by, some we remember, some we wish we did,  so In writing poetry it's like a treasure a part of us we can always look back on.

Whats really scary is when you can't remember the pain and/or happiness of those moments until you relive it in the pain. Time dulls pain but happiness too (.

Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go.

Your so right Cuddlez, even though I don't know why we are like this at times, wish I could remember all the good times so when I was in that time of need one would automatically come to me. Hey nice to meet you.
