Memories

What are the things 
That last forever?
The envelope of 
An old letter.
We treasure these 
Things
To remind us
That everyone 
Has a lover
From family to friends  
And even your boyfriend
We cherish their 
Words and 
Their actions
They remind us 
The best and worst 
Of times
All in the end 
Though 
Everything 
Is
Fine

Jan Allison April 13, 2015 at 9:44 AM This poem brought tears to my eyes - I came across a letter I wrote to my parents in 1999 - couldn't bear to part with it - so many memories I had forgotten about brought to life in my own words - Hugs Jan xx
