Timeless Memoirs There's photos I will treasure till life ends Those of delightful family and friends Though most I embrace in heart for all time You I must say are always on my mind. These pictures belong to special faces With whom, I find my foolish heart races Those I've loved, the memories linger on But mostly in mind is my number one. Friends I have gathered along life's highway Some pass through my mind every single day Fresh as daisies in life's floral bouquet Picked for their admirable inner ways. I recall them often and can’t forget Lovely times we had, and some to have yet Words don't come easily, as tear drops fall For those dearly departed, most of all. Timeless memoirs I have affection for Are kept safe in my heart for evermore Mainly the one who caused my heart to sing Indelible you, who gave my life wings. 10th March 2021 I Remember Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Malabika Ray Choudhury * *

Beautifully phrased, Belle... And the initial focus on photos is telling. Those 'old-fashioned camera photos' that had to be developed are the ones that move us most. Touching write, gw

Please remember to write down the names of those in the photos as your offspring are unlikely to recall exactly who is whom! Aloha! Rico

Rico, sadly there’s no one following me, only nephews and nieces if they should be interested in their old aunts photographs. Thank you Rico... Belle

That’s one thing we can look forward to, meeting up with loved ones and friends we knew when our time on earth is through. Thank you Gina and God bless, love, Belle
