I tried to give Kaoru's challenge a try, and here is what I came up with. I'm not sure how much I like this poem right now, but here it is anyway...  I have memories of different activities or things tied with places, people, or events, but the morning dove coo is the only sound that is obviously associated with a place in my memory. --- “Coo, coo” The morning dove song… Somehow echoing Peace in my mind A place I belonged Now left behind “Coo, coo” The only sound I know Left in a place At home in memory— Not too long ago In the pine trees “Coo, coo” Memories of joy Of warmth and smiles One never felt alone, When I was just a boy In the house My grandparents made home. |

Ben, I really like this poem. It has a warm homey feel to it. A challenge well met.  Hugs  Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (08-26-2003 01:22 PM).] |
