Memories of You

Memories of you,
   are buried so,
deep in my heart.

Such a smile,
    you carried,
with your sweet soul.

Nineteen-Sixty-Nine
    we were so,
young my dear.

What a summer,
we shared that year,
of perfective memories.

Still loving you,
   even as time,
closes in on us.

So beautiful! This poem touches my heart, reminds me of where I was and who I was with that year. Time does have a way of covering the past like a warm blanket on a chilly evening. Thanks for sharing this tender memory. Karen
