Just a memory from depth of heart
Lost to the moment, ever apart
Left in time of moments ago
Always remembered, this we know

Just a memory of moments we shared
True feelings of one deeply cared
Just a yearning that flowed within
Such a beginning, then a lost end

Now just a memory of yesterday
To another, taken away
Left to ponder, remember when
Lonely in wander, from within

Now just an echo among the trees
Soft flowing air of gentle breeze
Fading footprints in white snow
Lost to memory, now letting go

Now left beside the road of love
Having released this soft white dove
Watching the wings carry softly high
Now just a memory, a tear of eye.

Once a ride upon silver rails
Two shadows embarking those trails
Riding the ribbons swaying true
Now one shadow that once was two

I have often thought what life must be like for those who do not make memories, and I cannot abide that someone could hold such emptiness...

thank goodness for memories...all kinds...

(big huggggsssssss) This is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to all lovers who are left on their knees like this and I pray that the dove will always come warbling back and comforting them with loves memories as a new sparrows song of love will sound off! (sigh) This is powerfully compassionate, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Magnus darling boy How do you do this? Keep writing such perfect poetic wonders that fill my soul with such sweetness, I can feel the ache all along my nerves right into my deepest part of my soul.

You know I’m going to say that I love this utterly, outstanding writing as always YOU are a fabulous writer and this is utter delight. Sadness throbs in your lines and I’m awed by them time after time


Love and warm stuff
As always

Barry~

haunting....just a memory right?? Peace kind friend.....

Lauren~

~Sinking fast into
an ocean of you,
what if I told you,
what if I said
that I love you
do we dare cross
that line between your
heart and mine~

Hello Barry

Once again your words stir up so many of my emotions.  I could feel the love and longing vividly throughout your beautiful words.

Take care....Sue
