Pockets Of Time ~*Marge Tindal*~  Long forgotten in chest of cedar clinging to a fragment of delicate lace Chanced upon in a rummage for a treasure of antique grace to adore~ Tenderly fingered, as though it were mine this cameo of a moment divine Mother and child of a long ago rhyme reminiscing found in pockets of time~ Wonder just how it came to be that this wonderful piece of history ended up in this foreign of place without even the slightest trace of who they were … or where they went Foreverly forgotten by those who should know this mother and child … that a family loved so~ So, I believe that in the absence of kin this piece should be cherished by one who will keep the piece, embracing it in rhyme sharing the beauty of these pockets of time~ ~*~ ~Inspired by a lovely email from Coco Baci, in which she simply said, "I have found a few pockets of time where I may spend some time on the computer and visit some poetry pages at PIP." I wrote her back, "Ooooh ... and 'pockets of time' is an inspiring phrase." Seeing as how I am a collector of Cameos ... this one just seemed the perfect touch for these thoughts~ Hoping you agree ~And thanking you, Ms. Coco Baci~ ~*No matter what I search for ... |

Brilliant in meaning, idea and delivery Why do we produce brainless, and mindless as the past hinders us to learn from the past When most of us learn should from it because you stop learning from it and the countryside never changed What was unimportant now becomes a desire but in ignorance Dave |

Dear Marge: What an inspired write and how charming the cameo! Reminds me of coming across a box of pictures of children, in the attic of my in-laws farm, when they were gone. No one knew who they were! Seemed so sad! I kept them. Love Betty Lou |

So very beautiful, Marge. I hate to think how many photos such as this one are left somewhere in a box, never to be found. Thank goodness you have been able to bring this photo to life through your lovely words. Take care........Sue I am in motion |

This is lovely Marge. I am also attracted to cameos and have a tiny pair of cameo earrings. Now...where did I put them? hugs, Chris Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. |

"So, I believe that in the absence of kin this piece should be cherished by one who will keep the piece, embracing it in rhyme sharing the beauty of these pockets of time" ~ And you have done this beautifully. Hugs to you, Dear Lady, EO |

Dear Marge I'm so glad that you were inspired by Coco Baci when she said that she found a few 'pockets of time'! This poem of yours is a wonderful 'time piece', so to speak! Love Verbena xo |
