Pages Of The Past ~*Marge Tindal*~ Images of the past cascading Falling in surround Recall of the melody The song you left around You fell in soft surprise from pages of the past Brought new revelations of a love that was meant to last Held within the Rolodex of memories from the past You came You sang You breathed of love That love will always last Thumbing through your memories now laying in soft surround Finding all the reasons why you never let me down In soft repose now tucked among the satin memory pages Songs of just one yesterday lingers through the ages The jukebox of my heart where old love songs seem to stick Wouldn't you just know ours hung around and became a classic ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I so enjoyed this Marge ... especially your last line where your love "became a classic". It's so wonderful to know that such deep and committed love exists so wonderfully in your heart. Best wishes, /Kit |

"Held within the Rolodex of memories from the past" "The jukebox of my heart where old love songs seem to stick" Wonderful lines...my faves, but the whole poem is great...just like you are! |

Dear Marge, This is a super poem....really lovely. Images of the past cascading Falling in surround Recall of the melody The song you left around -------------------------- You got it just right in this one...as in all of yours. I am sorry I took so long to get to your poems this time...I really was too tired last night when I got back from a play we went to watch. Love ya Marge!! Love and hugs, Lizzie  < !signature-->"Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight."

Sunshine~ Glad you found B-9 on the jukebox ! Here's a little history lesson about the Rock-ola jukebox. ============================================= In 1936 the Queen Mary made her maiden voyage from New York City. She was the newest and most luxurious ship afloat. Capturing the moment, David C. Rockola delivered one of his 12-Selector Jukeboxes to her decks, and the headlines read "The Queen Will Have Music Wherever She Goes." ============================================= XAngel~ I couldn't agree with you more ! A treasure to hold for sure. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
