Echoes of the Mind A smile lights up my Sunday face Once more I weave this shawl of lace A needles thread with healthy sigh For catching echoes deep in lie I patch the holes with finer knit To hold the memories of my wit And market them in dreamer’s wile To set these gems in single file I wear them like a medalled chest My uniform my Sunday best Salute this flag that passes by The glories of my life I sigh They do not know my midis touch The limp of age or help of crutch They’ve set their voyage on their sea They set their sights on them not me But I am happy with their stay My only wish another day. |

Ah you don't mean to say it's already another day again? I really need to get into the habit of sleeping! Looks to me like you had a much more restful night, though Excellent, as always... Always, Alyssa Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. Joyce kilmer |

"I patch the holes with finer knit To hold the memories of my wit And market them in dreamer’s wile To set these gems in single file I wear them like a medalled chest My uniform my Sunday best Salute this flag that passes by The glories of my life I sigh" A uniquely Sy way of honoring the day... |

This brought a big smile to my face. Very much enjoyed, I needed that. ~Live and Laugh~ The memories are worth the pain when the happiness is outweighs the sorrow |
