Yesterday In Today

~~~~
Sunlight peeks through misty clouds,
and as I gaze at their restlessness
my thoughts are transcended
into the peacefulness of your mind…

I warmth the fire of wanting,
to remember of time
when you were held close,
desiring for yesterday in today…

Allured by the warmness
of a life yet to be in serenity,
able to dull the sharpness within…

Yes, warm memories of yesterdays can "dull the sharpness within" our todays.

May your todays become warm memories of
yesterdays!

I love the verses and all the poem, this is quite melancholic when you say :
desiring for yesterday in today…
memories are precious...but reviving them must be wonderful....

thanks

Dear Bill, I wish you a today that makes you forget about yesterday!

This is tenderly melancholic and I enjoyed it.

Love,
