Summer Rains
The summer rains came today washing winter woes away seems so long since they were here welcome back old friend to near and dear memories awakened from the sky with the petrichor of years gone by precipitating dreams of lazy days illuminating sunbeams in a haze which full-circle brought me back to you and the fun things we used to do on weekends walking in...

Premium Member Storehouse of Memories
I have a full storehouse of memories. The difference in their degree of clarity proves that not all memories are created equal. Some, I summon to the forefront frequently. They make me smile and feel happy, accomplished, and satisfied. I cherish these. Time has not diminished their power to please. Clear memories that hurt come unbidden, leaving me teary-eyed and unsettled. Attempts to...

Premium Member Resurrected Memories
"Memories buried in the wavering wash of time" Here am I resurrecting with faith's glow “Memories buried in the wavering wash of time” Thankful for flowing grace along God’s blessing-stream Awaking my hopeful heart midst miracles ready to unfold. Vanquishing woes inflicted by yesterday’s agonizing plight. Here am I, beholding eternity with triumphant bliss That once succumbed to frustration-despair Confessing weakness of...

Premium Member Of Memories Buried
With all memories, time comes and goes. Like a giant river, it gathers speed. Toward the great inevitable - it flows. Can we possibly recall our every deed? So many recollections haunt my mind. Some, however, are not remembered, and if my soul had limbs, perhaps I’d find certain memories have been dismembered. Sometimes I’m told stories of things involving me: tales I...

A Last Whisper to Us
Even when the sky is cracked and grey, Adoring arms can’t hold what’s meant to part. Ghosts of your voice dissolve into the day, Left behind, a hollowed aching heart. Oceans of grief drown the words unsaid, Fractured time blurs love into decay. Grief gnaws softly where our dreams have fled, Memories fade like ghosts at bay. Days pass, but the ache still...

Cemetery Holds The Living
hairline chasm threads cobweb white through obsidian— wrapped around carved names once warm on living tongues. those who lived visit with heads down, pretending it’s superstition— not guilt. not memory. not fear of love ending abruptly in a plot...

Premium Member Memories Buried In Time
My migratory mind indomitably mobile, recedes with the ebb of time, seeks the shore of the past, as the spirited surfer on the wandering waves of life, surging on curled crests carrying the fractured full moon, and within the twirling troughs that store the sunk stars. The wheel of time churns up the disarray dust, settling on the...

Premium Member Smell Induced Memories
As I walked into a family restaurant, My nose got tickled all of a sudden By a familiar aroma that entered my nostrils. It transported me back to the years long past, When I was a child at my far away home In my mother’s kitchen on a Christmas day. The smell of chicken stew and *‘appam’ And the intoxicating taste...

there were times when I did not understand him times when I fought with my heart, to remember time would not forget the days that were so grim it wouldn’t be that long, just before December he would tell us that love had come to his life years after this, I’d see that stirring ember sparks of hope divine to heal...

My memory’s worth cannot be measured, sometimes it brings with it some regret. Some I have filed and they are now treasured, the unpleasant one’s I’ve endeavored to forget. But from unpleasant things I can also fain, and experience has been my classroom teacher. So that I always know what not to do again, the same mistake would be a double feature. No...
