Sara Kendrick Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

far off memories

far off memories
like scattered dreams
lie dormant
waiting 

to come to life
              and haunt
                   hurt
                    cause negative emotions

good dreams
      where are you hiding
           those wonderful dreams
                    with grand emotions

are you layered 
      deep within
         the recesses of those cogs
              where the wheels have not turned
                       in a very long time?

Valsa George December 11, 2023 at 8:30 PM Sad that we are constantly visited by sad memories. We wonder where all small memories are hiding ! "are you layered deep within the recesses of those cogs where the wheels have not turned in a very long time?". Love this poignant question at the end. Sara Kendrick December 12, 2023 at 3:49 AM Thank you, Valsa. Your visits add a special touch. Sara K

Panagiota Romios December 6, 2023 at 9:19 AM Hi~ i buried past hurts. Plenty of present hurt comesout of nowhere. So, I omly live for this day, i wont allow past hurts to run me. They were some of life’s hard lessons. You exoress yourself quite well. Great video! Pangie Panagiota Romios December 6, 2023 at 11:45 AM I get your clarification..thank you..thanks. Pangie xxxx Sara Kendrick December 6, 2023 at 11:28 AM Yes, Panagiota, it is best to put the past in the past, forgiving ourselves where we failed, forgive others where they failed, but we don't forget and those things can surface once again in a dream or during the day from some unusual happening, odor(scent), or some crazy memory can pop-up. Thanks for the kind review and great advice. Your presence is always appreciated. Sara K

Hiya Sharma December 4, 2023 at 11:26 PM Oh yes, the rollercoaster ride of memories that can bring many poignant emotions to life & then our souls yearn to feel the soft sunshine of beautiful dreams which can ascend us from the tormenting pain..

Regina Elliott December 4, 2023 at 12:57 PM What an illuminating poem on retrieving more good memories instead of the bad, sorrowful ones. Stellar write, Sara. Many Yuletide blessings to you and your family. ~ Sara Kendrick December 4, 2023 at 2:12 PM Your Yuletide blessings are appreciated,Regina. Your visit is encouraging. Sara K

Tom Cunningham December 3, 2023 at 8:37 PM It's funny how a smell or a song can bring those memories to the surface. A shame it brings unpleasant ones to the surface too. Tom Sara Kendrick December 4, 2023 at 2:58 AM Yes, Tom, at one time some little something would bring back a memory from long ago, but it has not happened for a very long time. Thanks for dropping by and for taking time to leave a kind review of my work. Sara K

Andrea Dietrich December 3, 2023 at 12:19 PM Very nice , Sara. I think I don't let memories affect me. I guess I never had negative ones terrible enough to haunt me. My problem is dealing with pain caused by a drug I was urged to take . This is why I have no trust in Big Pharma. Sara Kendrick December 3, 2023 at 4:30 PM Andrea, I am sorry for the pain that is caused by a side effect from a prescription drug that you took. I am sorry that it seems it is permanent. I hope that something will show up to make it go away. Thank you for the visit and nice review of my work. Sara K
