Notes About The Poem

Until Never

I thought I had forgotten you…until

I heard your voice in song, 
	the murmuration of starlings, from the church pew.
I saw your eyes, 
	crystalline brightness in the moon off the sea.
I heard your laugh,
	in soft summer sensations of trembling wind chime.
I saw your hair,
	in spider’s softest web, a strand of sterling silver.

I thought I had forgotten you…never.

Hi Linda, you write with such feeling in this one, you write straight from the heart. We should never forget those who come into our lives for they all give us something. So many memories can always raise there heads and some at the most inopportune times, at least with me. This write touches the heart, Linda. Have a wonderful evening. Hugss always ..... Mike. XX
