Renewing Memory
4 Dec 2021 5:30 PM
Hard stone and cement sidewalk flowing down hill
Warmed by the sun and laced with daffodills
Spring wind clearing the snow from my mind
Birds, bugs and squirrels all talking at one time
Fresh green leaves waveing hello
Butterflies drinking nector from the fragrant yellow
What a warm sweet memory from the days of my youth
On this cold winter evening whispering this truth
Through short years lived as time gets harder
My heart is renewed through thoughtful wander
Thank you Father for this sweet moment past
That as I grow older in my mind still last
To remind me not of what was, to make me longingly sad
But to lift my spirit because what was will once again be had
