If I could create a picture book of
memories from the past,
every chapter a masterpiece
of unforgettable moments rehashed.
What a pleasure it would be
to turn a page each day,
reliving all the happy times
that quickly passed away.
Smiles I miss from loved ones
where heaven is their home,
babies all grown up now
with children of their own.
Summer rains and winter days,
autumn leaves that fell,
snowcapped pines at Christmas time
I remember so very well.
Oh, what a pleasure it would be
to flip the pages through,
for now, I see them in my mind,
so remembering will have to do.
Remembering Days Passed
Remembering Will Have To Do

ABOUT THE POET:
I am from a family of writers. My grandfather was a published poet. He taught me to write as a young girl. He opened up the world of poetry to me. What a sweet release it is to take those thoughts from the secret part of your soul and put them in verse. My hope is that my poems inspire others and reach them in a very special way.
