Nostalgia

In days gone by when Scented gardens beacon Sweet roses’ smile with wild charm And apples tease taste buds Salivating optic glands Kids joined hands in unity With hungry hearts Yearning with delightful glee For things to come Remembrance lends strength To hope for future days Of wild play and frolic In new beginnings Filled with promise Of fruitful landscape And pleasure roaming fields Saturated with raindrop earth Faithfully recycling life’s Unpredictable twist Everything must take its turn To wait and watch Fully baked and seasoned in time. A glint of hope And glimmer still Peeps beyond the veil Of unknown world That parallels the Here and now in Subtle transition Yet to come
