Best Memorable Poems

On a train going south on business
For what seemed an eternity,
I chanced upon a memorable man
Who changed the path of my destiny

He was itinerant to look at
With tatty coat and shabby shoes,
An unshaven face, his hair unkempt
And string, as a belt on his ‘trews’

He boarded...

** A Very Memorable Christmas Present **

Someone made an err::
Boxing Day ‘ere’s 
Been the day of — not after.
What started as the greatest 
Christmas ever, turned 
Us from better to worse
As our tempers grew, altered 
After our fingers were slid into
Those gift-wrapped firm gloves of...

Tiny toddlers

A breeze came through the window and brushed across my face
Bringing me thoughts of you, as time turned back without a trace
For a moment, it felt like nothing changed and you were right here
Connecting with me all over again, while erasing every single fear
No longer...

There is a place so beautiful I'd love to see again.
My dream vacation started in Madrid, in central Spain.
How I long to stroll again down by Retiro Lake
and see El Prado art museum. Then for old time's sake,
I'd find some iced “horchata” down by Alcala...

It was many years ago that I sat there on the floor
With Aunt Allie and my cousins, we knew what was in store.
The clan was gathered there around the Christmas tree
Just eagerly awaiting their Christmas gifts to see.

There was Billy Joe and Grady Earl and...

I can remember a past
seething with the ones I hurt,
with the ones whom my hurt came
and with my regret I can see
that hindsight is so much more than a number.

I can remember a past
flowing with the thanks of many
for the help I've blessed they're life
and...

We were together
On sandy beach
Sweet wind caressing
My hair with sun.
One month it lasted
With sound of sea
And our kisses
Shiny delight.
One month of love
Which still now lasts
Deeply in my mind
With sound of sea 
and our kisses
Shiny delight.

Memorable vacations  weren't in my future
Elk season came around and guess where my husband spent vacation
My desire to acquire a vacation with him to a romantic paradise wasn’t meant to be
Over and over I would plead asking him, please
Ruining his was not permitted
Adding the...

I write from my heart, not just words, but feelings of what’s inside,
Our hearts are such wonderful places where we can find things to hide
Like the ones that I want to remember, they are like pieces of gold
The warm memories that unfold when I think...

My choice my partner should be fair and smart.
My hope my partner never hesitate to play a part,
My wish my partner feel palpitation of my heart,
I mind when relationship breaks and cooperation bashed, 
My wish my partner treat me fare to pull my cart....
