Retracing Hearts' Moments

Recalling today is a token of life's affection, I bestow a kiss on her paling cheeks as we pace in a garden, she on a rolled chair- muttering,"Hello, is there a party out there?" Incidents shared haze like when we fell in love, a tingle within from our first- built house , the splendor of our newborn's cry -- decades' photographs folded and reopened. Now,we celebrate in bittersweet ways, unearthing our dreams and milestones repeating stories for her to own back , again just like garden times shining in our eyes. Roses I cuddle to adorn her. Will she know a glimpse of time's pleasures---just one bit? Somehow, she nods like renewed morn Her eyes glow, " A gift from a friend ,perhaps." Dated Jan 19, 2017 Valentine-- Form D Contest
