Echoes of the Heart

They Come Softly in The Night
Some in the Light Of Day
Sometimes I welcome them
Others don’t Come to Stay

They Flicker in And Out
Not causing too much pain
Like a shadow dances
In the wind and rain

Time and Age Has Cured Me
From the Heartaches I’ve endured
But I remember all of them
Of that you can be sure

At Last I’ve found a certain peace
From times I was broken apart
I’ve even given them a name….
They are just the echoes of my Heart

I enjoyed reading this Connie, another well written poem. Solid beginning to capture your audience and then a great rhythm at the end. Nice purpose and the right amount of emotion. AAA+
