Premium Member Mementos on the Moon Ideas
3d music bot that makes hearts swoon Is what I’d leave melodies on the moon Musical notes float like a magical mirror Reflecting views of places applicable to each song The notes can gather and form a body that dances Or dissolve like sand to create lands sang about For instance a song about the sea would be watery The notes would...

Premium Member Healing touch of cherished things
In quiet dim corners and drawers untouched, Lie precious things, much cherished and clutched, These cold inanimate things, just like a friend, Can ease our troubles, and ill feelings amend. Each memento and much used everyday things, Are something special, for the comfort each treasure brings. It's not just any old clock, that's revered, it's only that one. With its unique tick...

Simple
I like to travel, to be unknown. I like to dwell in the eyes of strangers. I like first impressions and new beginnings, and I don't ever like them to end. I like it when people narrate their stories and try to be nice. I like it when I don't have time to overthink. I love...

Relics
I struck the flint against the steel sending sparks showering over the tinder I’d arranged in the pit topped with the single bit of char cloth from the tin of my fire starting kit Not many know how to do that these days The weight of what I was about to do demanded the old ways Breathing life into the flames I fed...

Aroused Memories From An Incense Stick
Swirling twirling wisps of smoke, Fragrant and pure threads of dreams, Soft as new laces, Dreamy with a touch of sleep, Sanity, it’s hard to keep, Dreams finally coming true, Long forgotten stories alive, Worlds all at once trying to strive, Images flashing like bolts of lightening, Those old days forging to the front, Old memories suddenly arising, Across mementos treasured so long, Searching for something, I find...

Premium Member Mementos Gathering Dust
Mementos Gathering Dust Small pottery animals and a bowl, a glass etching of a unicorn in a leaded frame and silver chain, drawings of cartoons. Mementos of my sons sit on shelves or hang on my walls gathering dust. Now my grandchildren’s drawings and love letters hang on...

Premium Member Mementos From a Hidden Waterfall
Closing my eyes I bring back the vision Of a hidden waterfall A breathtaking sight Of water cascading Over stubborn rock And other things. Over time Rocks and boulders, And everything else Lodged in the river, Will give way To rushing water Charging ahead In its relentless flow Downriver. Of all things On Earth I think Water will outlast The possessions We feel are important The toys The gadgets The rockets to the moon And all things human....
