Young Once More
Young Once More.
.
Beyond furrow and story filled line
Haggard and lived in drooping sallow skin
Weathered and tired by the scourge of time
Disguises a youthful heart that resides within
Cheeky clear smiling eyes
Light up as beacons on a dark velvet night
Reviling the beauty beyond facade disguise
On reminisces of her happy childhood take flight
For a few brief moments the years fade away
A young girl in the blossom of youth full of charm and delight
Halcyon memories of long gone warm sunny days
And oh so clear skies
Her and friends at play
Bring a tear of joy
As though it was just yesterday
Her first naive kiss with a boy
Cherished tender memories
Kept within the album of her heart
A young girl at heart history.

‘’ I love talking to older people
And talk about their childhood. The look in their eyes is Priceless and beams from the heart.’’
