I was clearing out the cobb webs
making room for new
when suddenly I came upon
a memory of you

Faded with time
and covered in dust
a heart still intact
pieced together by trust

Nothing much different
still looks the same
......look here......
it still has your name

Written in bold
with a softly aged hue
not much has changed
in this memory of you

Same feeling, same wish
same smile, same ache
same PING! in my heart
as I feel it re-break

Just then I realize
I don't want any new
I still love the old
Memories
of
you

I was thinking something along those lines last night... only I was wishing for new memories with the person in the old ones...

SEA, this is brilliant, memories, ah! Now do I really want to wander in memory lane, or do I want to live for my tomorrows? In my case the memories aren't all as golden as this is. That being the case, I'm off up the road with no cloudy dusty memories holding me in the past. I really love this one love it's perfect.
Oh news on your fan club, they have whittled the name down to five and one of the lazy little tykes will bring it up to me later. Hey why worry I've really got nothing better to do. (I know being sarcastic won't hurry them up!) So as soon as I've got the list and deleted anything that will cause David to blush, I'll let you know.
Take care love, Oh and how's things with your aunt, I hope you're copping, love and warm hugs

hi Sea, you know each time I come across one of your poems somehow in a verse you write there's a word/expression you use in rhyme that just sends me back into a place where memories or even dreams seem to whisk me away for an instant....

You're a sweet poet Sea!

Paula~ memories are tricky, just when you think they are lost to some forgotten place in your soul, they pop out to say hello....


Jamie~ sometimes I wish for the very same thing........

Mushy~ thank you sweet one.....I am waiting patiently to hear what they come up with! I have a great sense of humor, so tell them to have fun with it......

Coco~ I am so happy I can do that for you   thank you

SEA...
  This is so wonderful.....I have a hard time letting go of old memories, even if they are bittersweet. I loved this, and the feeling you put into it!

Yes, it's very true, the thoughts you've expressed, I truly enjoyed this one!

You are so right, we long for our memories but they have their place. Memories are to remember. We will never have the same moment again even with or without the same person, time or place. Live for the future as the past does not exist.
Loved your work...

Expressions,
are the most important aspects, they create impressions
