Memories On the Breeze

What wouldn't I give
 to get back the time
when life seemed simpler to live
 and plans alone were fine.

Some of those hopes and dreams
 never were fulfilled
but joy and laughter redeemed 
 the efforts spilled.

Now, as both dreams and you are gone
  only the memories ride on the breeze
and somewhere background plays our song
 whispering I Love You on the windy seas.
