Debbie Guzzi Poet Sonnet

Past Passion

Go now, turn the photo albums pages.
You often smile at happy memories.
Let the images rekindle the stages,
Never lost, love..within my heart's reverie.

Would that we could return to bygone days.
I would do anything to turn that page.
Love know, my thoughts of us set nights ablaze.
Past passion, left my broken heart engaged. 

The years are long, and still, the pages turn.
Relive those brighter memories and come.
Could the ever after be, oh I yearn ..
We each can see the love in our album.

Only you, it is yours, my broken heart,
If you wish a Valentine take the dart.    


*Key to message: Read the bolded first words
of each line from the bottom up.

 If only We Could Relive The Past Love, I Would Never Let You Go

Sean L Sanders January 30, 2013 at 8:54 AM Very touching excellent poem written by a very good poet. I saw that you view another poet named Margherita Russo she's only 14 and I know it would mean alot for her to have you read her newest poem if you have the time. Thank you very much.

Andrea Dietrich January 22, 2013 at 10:19 PM looking at your great sonnet idea again. Debs, the reason I did not make that one poem of mine into a sonnet was because of the restrictions on the lines. I think it called for 12 lines only. Otherwise, i probably would have wanted to make it a sonnet!

Demetrios Trifiatis January 22, 2013 at 3:20 AM You may let love go BUT love never let us GO! Memories is the tresure of our lives! Beautiful poem, loved it! Thank you!

Joy Wellington January 22, 2013 at 12:18 AM Debbie, I guess at some time or the other each of us has one of those. Stellar write, great one. Thanks for reading my poem and glad you like. I have relocated both at job and living. From Ontario to Alberta, so I am still adjusting to new living and work, which takes up a lot of my time. From time to time, however, I will be popping in until I get things settled. One love. Joy Wells
