Roger Horsch Poet Rhyme

Memories

I looked back through my memories
to the time I was a Child
I remember all the fun I had
I knew it when I smiled

I remember the time I fell in love
and, when my heart had broke in two
I remember those days when I did not know
what was false or what was true

Memories are like a movie
from when we're young until we're old
We can always watch them anytime
'cause our memories we do hold

I remember the times with family
I remember my times with friends
I love to remember such wonderful things
and, I hope it never ends

So, sit right back and close your eyes
and, put a smile upon your face
Then, let yourself go away for a while
to that wonderful memory place

Linda Roger Horsch January 9, 2014 at 6:54 AM You just made my day by stopping by and reading my new poem. I also have many bad memories but I focus on the good ones. We have control over what we choose to remember. I choose to also remember the bad because it is a reminder of all the good ones I have and the good ones to come. It makes them all worthwhile. You are very special to me.....Hugs....Roger

Andrea Dietrich January 8, 2014 at 7:29 PM Yes, Memories are wonderful things, but being in the present and looking forward to things is even better. I'm just trying to find more things to look forward to. Otherwise, my memories are going to be MY best things. haha. Good poem!! Roger Horsch January 9, 2014 at 5:56 PM There you are Andrea, It is always pleasant when you visit me. Memories are wonderful things even the bad ones have some value. Without the bad memories we would have nothing to gauge how valuable the good ones are.
