Rare Moments Sublime

Gentle spring breezes softly sweep across my mind Bring rare moments sublime I could not lately find, Waft unexpected by the chamber of my now, Making me ask myself why strange winds care, and how Spirits of bygone times and places come anew Bearing forgotten long-past pleasantries with you, My love, my dearest, now gone to another place How much I long to relive, to touch your sweet face. Incidents I could not remember way back when Or where, picked up in the passing sigh just then, Like surf, quickly as the warm breezes sweep away My sandcastles, startles collapse my fragile clay Without lingering the breezes came and went, while Happily, I relished the mem’ries with a smile.
