Echo Of The Past

                               Cherished moments of you so dear
                               Mother, the past it calls, echoing
                               so throughout the years
                               In photographs they recently appear
                               The past so remote it feels
                               as though another lifetime
                               What now seems a dream,
                               brings upon me bittersweet tears
                               You were the security blanket
                               much needed in my youth
                               wrapped around a warm 
                               embrace that soothed
                               night terrors, a child’s fears
                               Emblematic are those things I keep
                               bangles, earrings and castanets 
                               rife with meaning I hold deep
                               conjuring times well spent
                               Losing ourselves in thrift shops,
                               the eclectic promenade
                               or the iconic ice-skating rink,
                               savoring all as I fall asleep
                               As I think of you, I ponder still
                               Memoirs  better than a 
                               feel good pill!
