Memories of You
Memories of You
You’re more than just a memory tucked deep within my heart
you’re the brilliance of the sunrise that cues the day to start.
You’re the rustle of the wind blowing softly through the trees,
the music of a wind chime dancing on an evening breeze.
You’re a symphony of robins returning in the spring
the lyrics and the melodies
of the love songs that they sing.
You’re the freshness of a summer rain
on a hot and humid day
cleansing and renewing, washing the heat away.
You’re the colors of the autumn leaves
magentas, red and gold
that lend a hint of cheerfulness
before winter claims its’ hold.
You’re the silence of the first snowfall
the sparkle of snowflakes
the shimmer of the ice that creeps
across unsuspecting lakes.
You’re the magic in a Christmas tree
the twinkle of the lights
the ribbons, bows and holly
that makes the season bright.
You’re the shadow of the moon,
the luster of the stars
the radiance of the sun telling the day to start
you’re more than just a memory
you’re the soul within my heart.
