Unearthing Yesterday
The scent of rain on hot asphalt, unearths a ghost of summers past. Barefoot on sun-baked concrete, a phantom echo of laughter bounces off brick walls that no longer stand. A melody drifts from a distant radio, a tune I haven't heard in years, and suddenly I'm sixteen again, awkward and full of yearning, leaning against a chain-link fence, watching the world unfold like a...

Daffodils have bloomed again I wish I could send you pictures But your in a deep sleep My love wandering through The heavens above Now and again I feel you The music box that never Played will erupt in a song And I just miss you Yesterday has come and gone If we could but relive Change what once was But...

The Explosive Heart of Yesterday
The pixelated maze, a vibrant square, Where Bomberman strode without a single care. A grid of blocks, some breakable and weak, While others stood, a fortress we would seek To navigate, with joystick firm in hand, A childhood quest in this digital land. The simple beep, the rising urgent tone, As power-ups appeared, uniquely sown. The flame's embrace, extending far and wide, The roller...

Premium Member Crazy Crow was not Born Yesterday
Crazy crow flew in loops and whorls Flying pattern as scalloped as mama’s curls Wee witch said he’s the familiar for me Invited him to sup on blueberry afternoon tea Crazy crow flew in the window, around the kitchen twice The cat said “he looks marvelous, I think he’s nice.” She truly thought he looked plump and tasty too. When the crow...

From Yesterday to Tomorrow
we were strangers once, then we weren’t, suddenly laughing ‘til our stomachs hurt. late night talks, dumb inside jokes, “best friends forever” like it was wrote. but life moves fast, and so did we, different paths, different speeds. you took a turn that I couldn’t see, while I kept pushing towards what I believed. I moved forward, chasing dreams, you stayed true to what...

Castles of yesterday
I am dawn rusty like a ribald blade You stole my castles without release I didn't have the standard and logo to catch on today The Iceman has left the scene and I count my loss then thrumpted it with holes Launcelot drew at the vue still working out the time and counted the dusty envelopes of the day Don't blame me if my words aren't fulfilled to...

Yesterday
Yesterday The clouds opened,and God called your name. We knew in that instance our lives would be forever changed. We search for answers,and ask God for peace.We long for what once was,and for the pain to cease. You lived your life to the fullest,and you loved without fear. None of us ever imagined the...

Premium Member I stand at the edge of time, where yesterday weaves into today in an eternal dance
I stand at the edge of time, where yesterday weaves into today in an eternal dance, I gaze upon the uncharted path that stretches like a blank canvas, waiting to be painted by my steps, The wind whispers secretly, like an old confidant, of a future lurking beyond the horizon's line, Where unspoken dreams take shape and color...

Yesterday
Yesterday took my youth Each scene scripted In blood, sweat and years Laughter lived under the stairs Only brought out on special occasions. We would dine and say grace for tomorrow Yesterday stored my mistakes Regurgitated memories to drive the future me To believe that today is possible My present tense, my now Though as each word is written It is now my past Did...

Ode from Yesterday
There is a place beyond the night Where vision does not pierce, Where lies the look of muddlement That shackles without force. I’ve spent some time in looking For a blur I will not see, Yet lingers on the morning’s dawn - There veiled by glimmered sea. Will I see the fog encroaching, Or feel it in my bones? Will I know enough to seek...
