Sunday Morning Muse

The air is thick and sweet with the promise of rain I long to abandon my thoughts into its depths Flooding my senses with hope And forgotten memories of the past … The pictures are long faded from my mind But that warm sense of joy… Yes, it still lingers untarnished Filling me with the wander of youth, Of innocence and a purity only seen in the eyes of babes Bits of memories flick past Played out like an old movie projected on a wall I can almost hear the ever click-clicking of the rolling film ‘This is your life’, whispers my thoughts And still I feel warm joy, lying just under my skin A slow smile reaches my lips at the sheer wander That there is still soo much more yet to come I am soo grateful … So blessed … Life is beautiful 13.06.2021

Lovely piece of poetry, Melody..."easy like Sunday morning". Love that first line: "The air is thick and sweet with the promise of rain" -- superb! Sets the tone for what follows on -- enjoyed! :) john

The mind always wanders in such quiet peaceful moments, memories from the past and memories yet to be made. Nicely written, Melody. Hugs, John
