Sheri Evans Poet Rhyme

Mementoes

In a box
      on a shelf,
I keep my memories there.
   Old cards and pictures
      of a time,
Which I don't mind to share.

 But in my mind
      and in my heart,
What brings this mother pride.
   Those special times
      I treasure most,
I keep them safe inside.

Gershon Wolf June 2, 2020 at 6:58 PM Aw, very special... And I agree: The best memories are those deep inside. They can't necessarily be captured by any media, because that diminishes them. Lovely penned! :) Gershon Sheri Evans June 2, 2020 at 7:44 PM My utter most appreciation for your continuing thoughtfulness my friend. So glad to know you as a friend. Thankyou

Arturo Michael June 2, 2020 at 10:31 AM Sweet, my friend...I like the simplicity Sheri Evans June 2, 2020 at 3:48 PM How generous of you to have took the time to read and reply to these all. I have been struggling in the midst of mom's absence and been idle with any of my art. It means so much to have your support as poetry doesn't resonate well with my brothers as far as support. I appreciate you greatly. Hugs to you from me.
