Sheri Evans Poet Free verse

Bittersweet the Memory

I can still hear your voice
        in the silence that surrounds me.
     It echoes through my mind
        like wind through the trees.
     Lingering in the memories
        that haunt my fading dreams.
     Reminding me of feelings
         I've long since tucked away.

It’s been a while since I’ve read your work, nice to see you again. John Sheri Evans November 30, 2022 at 8:30 PM Thankyou John I just haven't been able to write since my mom passed It's been a long road finding my life now after 7 years as her caretaker and constant companion. I still am a bit aimless but am starting to enjoy drawing. Ty
