Seashores In Faraway Places

Breezes blowing through her auburn hair Reminded me of seashores in faraway places, Those times we lounged in an afternoon lair In the most God-forsaken primitive spaces, The best times of our life together, I swear. Written October 9, 2022 [dedicated to Deborah] Submitted to "Bite Size No. 53" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier

This sounds like Nirvana.

I suppose it certainly could be. I had some Caribbean Island in mind.

Your nostalgic poetry for what you and Deborah shared is so lovely. I hope this one will be on the winning list, Milt.

Well, we will see. I can hope. This little poem is so true. As I approach the anniversary of her death at Thanksgiving, I reminisce a lot more about the wonderful times we shared.
