I smile, sit back remembering the feel of fire before eyes dimmed through the smoldering ashes of time. It rewinds through the mind the shy girl giggle laughter and the love of loving unconditionally on back roads of life that took us through forests where day bled into night and night to day and neither forgets that we once had passed this way in our slow hurry to go nowhere fast and these memories, though the passing of years would tell us otherwise, they continue to keep us young and it is then that I am there with you again at the edge of time. I've seen the paintings in the air brushed by the hand of God~ Lonestar |

“on back roads of life and these memories, though the passing of years would tell us otherwise, they continue to keep us young and it is then that I am there with you again” What a wonderful write. Hit me square between the eyes. Reminds me of the back roads I traveled quite a bit in Indiana. A lot of memories for me.

This is a wonderful piece of writing. You kind of took me back to places where I have been -- magical sunsets heating the evening as sand mingled with kisses. I really love this poem. A |

Sometimes without meaning to I come across something that resonates with me. I'm sure glad I read this gem. it will take a long time for the echo within me to fade. a good commitee can decimate communication. |
