Memories Lost

Memories Lost


past entangled snares
heavy laden under mire
lurk memories lost

deeply seeded held
cleverly hidden in mist
are memories lost

heaving  hoeing
ebbing flowing never showing
all memories lost

This is a outstanding write my friend! I love how you made each memories lost a little different. My favorite line is definitely the line, "ebbing flowing never showing" displaying the absence of memories. I love your poem immensely Debbie! Great Work!!
