Remember Me

Remember Me

Remember me when the stars have dimmed
and silence is our favorite place
Remember those peaks where we once climbed
those so high, they could almost touch grace
 with elegance that made our hearts race

Remember me when the night wind cries
and moans, for it too, ages and wanes
It speaks of how quickly the time flies
It once danced with iridescent rains
and gently caressed the sleeping plains

Remember me when the days were young
and summer blew kisses in our hair
Remember the songs that once were sung
and sun and sand were everywhere
and love still danced upon the sweet air.

Thanks so much, Sara! I went out of form and had to change two lines, so I doubt I'll place. I hated to change them.I liked them.
