Tapestry

Toward my golden years, I’m moving fast
As recollections cherished in my heart
Pass through my mind, those bright threads from my past,
Entwining with the present. It is art!
Such lovely images comprise this fine
Tapestry I’ve woven over time -
Reflecting past or present in each line;
Years coming will complete a life sublime.

You are pretty hard to beat Andrea! Loved this poem filled with honesty. I think you did a great job judging the Duo-rhyme contest and feel very honored to be among the winners. I am sure, after reading all the winning poems, it wasn't easy.

This is nice, but omg! I almost used the word 'sublime' for the word I hate the most contest! lol! It general I think it's overused, but it works well here :) I like how you threaded your words/life together. Mine is so stupid - I'll post it tomorrow, but be prepared to throw up in your mouth a little, lol ;)
