Memories of Good Old Days

Memories of good old days


When memories give you tears, 
you sit, there is nowhere to go,
and you have the worst of fears,
Can you ever retain your glow ?

Those nostalgic evening walks,
drives in the dark that made crazy,
stuck in mind like stubborn plaques,
Can those pictures ever go hazy ?

Engraved in marble you can't erase,
Successive thoughts bound to depress,
Echoing in ears stays every phrase,
Alive are memories you must confess,

Emotions flow with good old memories,
as souls dance serene in mind galleries!

Dorian Petersen Potter Date: 11/1/2014 3:59:00 AM Memories are pieces of our very life, the good ones and sadly the bad ones too have a place in this landscape of our existence. None can live without the other. All are linked like praying beads. ;) So many times I wish I could erase all my bad memories too. Very nice poem, Dr. Sharma! GL in the contest! ;) xxxx D.
