Reality fades into the past, deep into the labyrinth of memories that we hold inside the mind, and so into the heart. If memories made and given, are wrapped in loves true measure, they crown the heart, and feed the soul, when dark hours pain invades the day, to sweeten thoughts of hopes rebirth. Tis surely blessed for the one, to give of memories that speak of love, and lasting joy. To know you fill anothers heart with tender love of moments past, is gift more given to the one who gives this gift of blissful thoughts, never to be lost, but held within the heart, and cherished in the mind. Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart. Joseph Fort Newton |

Mom, this is beautiful! What would have to laugh about at dinner on Sunday if we didn't have all those memories? My favorite memory is when I was little and I used to peek in the kitchen to see you and dad slow dancing to some oldie on the radio....come to think of it, you guys still do that! Thank you for all of the warm memories you have given me. I love you! ...beth |

Yes, memories are like photographs arent' they, and this verse is a lovely reminder of them. Thank you for posting it. "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." Winnie the Pooh |

Like the cherished hymn says, "Precious Memories, how they linger, how they ever flood my soul!" This poem aboutjust that is so lovely, well expressed, with that special Ellie touch. Thank you for sharing & touching our lives with such beautiful thoughts. David P.S. Power's back on- & I am back too. To put together words & rhyme--and touch a life--is so sublime! Thank God for such precious contact! (D.L.White) |
