Will You Remember Me "Will you remember me..." I whispered, as the ride to nowhere was filled with memories of yesterday. "I will remember you..." I smiled, as I rode on the edge of warmth. "I'll do what I have to do, but I don't know how to let you go..." mind racing as I looked at the last leaf hanging on the gnarled tree, to the right side of the trail. Stopping to adjust my feelings that seemed to cause me some disquieting moments, I braked often, to snap the view. Trickling waterfalls wet my thirst for Springtime. Gathering stones, I absorbed their coolness, fingering their edges before tossing each with a wish. My field of vision escaped time, darkness falling to my right, the moon rising in splendor to the left. Bluish pink skies drawing upon memory, the softness of your touch. Creatures of the night heard the turning of my wheels pedaling faster, trying to reach a place of comfort, as the crispness of the night air began to bite. Dwelled for a moment in fear, emotions rising, until the surroundings approached recognition, and a sigh of relief escaped my lips. I descended... In the absence of you, I arrested my mind, but my body will always feel the magnetism of these memories, and I will remember you... for many seasons to come. ~Wynter "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

Maureen, a beautiful reflective write for us this morning! Much enjoyed the sentiments here...reflective yet with a touch of longing for what was. Excellent! *now the song is playing over and over in my head!* ~Hugs, Nancy~ ~Love, like magic, depends on believing.~ |

Nancy...thank you, I actually took that ride yesterday in 60 degree weather. It was beautiful out. And yes, I was listening to Sarah...*s Alan...mostly the good will be remembered...the bad slip away for me eventually. Thank you. Larry..history is ok..as long as the bad doesn't repeat itself..*s It's funny how your whole life will begin to pass before you ...all those years you thought were happy ones...I spent 5 hours remembering all those moments of joy... all the pleasures I have experienced in the last 30 some years and finally not a tear was shed..except when I lost my balance crossing the tracks in the dark and went down, then I cried because my legs wouldn't let me rise for a few moments... and I feared I would be left there on that wooded trail with no one finding me until morning...then I got up and said "I know I can..I know I can" and pedaled on home...in pain I might add. *s thanks Maureen "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." (J.Garland) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (01-28-2002 11:51 AM).] |

Ah, this is one of those poems that you do, that just grab my heart, and I feel like I am living it. You know, that song makes me cry, every time. I guess cause I don't think he will. Nice work, Maueen. Sandra |
