Distant Memory
Sometimes when gentle rain falls,
When lazy days stretch and yawn,
My mind sifts
Back to a distant time –
A time when there was you
and laughter
and hope
and joy.
But like all things that pass
When truth does not prevail,
You’re just a piece of HISTORY –
A MEMORY that will not last.

Memories are like pearls. The more you pull them out to handle, polishing them, buffing to a fine sheen, the better they appear. Sometimes though it is better to leave them rest in a safe and secure place.
Thank you for the link. Loved the poem.
