Long Trip down memory lane Poems

MY BUCKET LIST

Years and years ago, I made a bucket list.
I looked everywhere and could not find it.
I don’t remember everything I listed,
so it’s time for a new one to be created
or just to go...

There’s one thing that bonds animal to man,
That unites the wild with the caged,
Those captivated within bondage and those roaming free; disengaged.
At a first wandering gaze or slinking inquisitive eye,
One may be misled in the...

and immediately sent me on a trip…a trip down memory lane.

I miss you
I recall how at first you called me boy
Gave me sweet things and always a special toy
Scared trying to sleep heart racing with fright
You tucked me in rubbed my head and said good...

Everything is topping up
The Lunatic has struck his luck
By waiting like a sitting duck
He found his “Stomach-tuck”

His stomach-tuck’s a golden goose
Or is it his final noose?
Everything is going round
But where is it...

Through the corridors of time and space that steer
Fond passageways to remember our affair...

Waltz hand in hand under the evening...

But for what; a jilted love affair, blatantly acted out 
Right under my nose; i suppose you didn't mean to do the unthinkable, 
And break...

Let’s go to the fifties to share those days once again.

It’s a flight of misgivings.
Travels, to distinction.
With passports in hand…
vision is lost.
A fog storm, 
of epic proportions.
“Oh – (sigh and huff, wailing)
Where do we go?! What do we do?!”
(whining)
Whining…
Such a gift,
wasted.
A trip down memory lane,

I took a trip down memory Lane;
My soul teleported to higher plane.
I was lost in reveries;
I found an angel that lives in my memories,
Lost but found in the field of ferns.
A diamond amidst the waving...

A trip down memory lane. In front of a windowpane, my paint brushes search for a landscaped vista... a frame to capture for a lifetime or more


unskilled hand scribbles
scenery mixing with dreams
colours get new shades

Catacombs, slumbering dead
Slipped from life emotions shed
Blistering dark, insects creep
Dead will all their secrets keep.

Concrete world laden grey
Occupants have had their day
Guardian angel made of stone
Feelings nil for those old bones.

Silent wait 'til judgment day
Undertone...

One last trip down memory lane,
one last look at the house of pain,
with busted windows and empty shell,
and stagnant, stinking, wishing well.
Into the kitchen where love once toiled,
the dish now cold, its flavour spoiled,
no seasoning...

I scored myself a ticket
for a trip down memory lane.
Time has surely passed
but the music's still the same.
Photographs and relics,
adorn unaltered tapestry
Yesteryears' reflections,
still displayed for all to see.

My ears a'buzzing with a charm, 
heart's now...

Submission is a word
I hardly ever even knew.
Meanwhile I will tell you a secret
Held closely out of the blue.
Smile, I'll take one moment
To take you on a trip down memory lane.
Working a full day
Tired was...

No thank you

 
What's the point?
You can't stir me up with spiritual things
So why should I take a trip down memory lane
To find myself fluster, busted or even abruise
to get mad all over for that...

Coors Lite, Food Fight,
My bros dirt bike, and kisses good night,
Orangutan Sex, "I give it a ten"
