Lap Of Remember ~*Marge Tindal*~  Do you have a lap of remember where so gently your thoughts lay you down A soft downy keep of surrender where memories cascade in surround Calling sheep home from the meadow in tenderly-blown notes of the horn Wool-gathering moments of splendor in cashmere thoughts of adorn Serenity-swirled coverlet of recall brings tenderly-quilted moments to lay Across this lap of remember in forevering visions on display It's so quiet one can hear a butterfly winging in fluttered flight o'er meadows of the heart Each swoop brings a sweet sip of nectar to the soft lap land of ne'er depart ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge- Ok...I KNOW I read this one...hmmmm... I absolutely LOVE the thought of this one... "Do you have a lap of remember where so gently your thoughts lay you down A soft downy keep of surrender where memories cascade in surround" That's just such a comforting thought. Another soft and tender render from your pen. Wonderful!

I just felt I was wrapped in the softest cashmere blankie, and then the end came, and I had to unravel, but with such wonderful thoughts. Oh, this one absolutely loved me. She is in the library with some lovely company now. Stately and elegant is right! If you have but one true friend when you die you were truly blessed |

Marge, this is really pretty... "Serenity-swirled coverlet of recall brings tenderly-quilted moments to lay Across this lap of remember in forevering visions on display" Nice combination of choice words into beautiful poetic lines and on into excellent verses... I never had a comforter that was ever that elegant........I love it...."Lap Of Remember" Think I'll curl up under the vision of it and go to sleep! |

Marge My "Lap of Remember" has always been Granny's. Nothing is as comforting as being in the arms of my Grandmother. Excellent post. Really got me thinking. I think I'll go tell my Grandmother how much I love her. Thanks Marge. Garfield |

Everyone has commented on this so much, it's had to say something new. Just the same, I like this very much, both the picture and the poetry. |
