~*The Future I Recall*~ Sweet memories drift back to me A smile crosses lips I recollect a time when you were at my fingertips Once upon a romance when we danced 'neath lover's moon When every word in whispered breath would cause my heart to swoon A hug, a kiss...sweet reminisce It seems like yesterday When you were here beside me loving me your gentle way And, now I long to hear your voice Sweet music to my ears To know once more the sound of you after oh so many years Thinking back to hearts entwined How quickly I could fall Can't help but wonder is it 'past' or 'future' I recall ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |

Vicky~ I believe this is one of your prettiest pieces~ The nostalgically lingering memories are delicately defined ... makes it a 'keeper' piece~ I have read it seven times ... and each time it stirs a new memory~ That's pretty powerful writing that can do that~ Love you, gal~ Bunches and bunches~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Thinking back to hearts entwined How quickly I could fall Can't help but wonder is it 'past' or 'future' I recall And I can't tell you how often I do this exact same thing...enjoyed this much! |

Lovely poem Vicky. Sometimes the past lingers so dear in our memory that it feels like present, and leaves us wondering if it could be our future. I tried that once, but it did not work out for me. Deb |
