X Y Z: Y word was chosen. Contest Sponsored by Constance La France Date:16/06/2023
Yesterday when I was in youthful prime Questioning nothing the whole world was mine Without fear, I met each and every day Wish it were possible to stay that way. Decades have sped by and now in old age Memories abound with me they engage As my eyesight grows dim recall is bright Love burns with passion it did not take flight. Alone but not lonely each day must face Youthful echoes I willingly embrace Each hour my mind wanders to far-off years I smile remembering no time for tears.
