Grains of sand upon a soggy
sole,
Tracks left behind upon
the beach.
Pleasing hours without
ticking clocks,
Freedom bestowed a perfect
afternoon.
Memories collected in the
seeing of it all,
Images captured the
fleeting scenic beauty.
Hilarious happenings
reveal the merriment,
Reminders lodged in each
individual mind.
Mementos regarded with
affection long after,
Family love bequeaths another
passage of time.

mementos regarded with affection....each memory is like that little bauble we can pull out and look over...gotta love the sweet times full of merriment...and family
ReplyDeleteI love this Eileen. It's amazing how memories like this can reverberate forever isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI tuck the beautiful memories close to my heart and treasure them all.
ReplyDeleteone that I shall always treasure is a phone call I had from my son just a little while ago, he called to see if I was okay as someone called him about a bad accident in my part of town and he wanted to make sure it was not me ... what a treasure I have in him.
Love this poem, Eileen.
Take care, I wish you a very good day

Oh,those magical moments with family. Truly the heart of a beautiful life. Loved this, Eileen!
ReplyDeleteMemories are treasures and treasured a lifetime. Souvenirs are not measured in money terms but they are priceless. More so when family members are part of it! Great thoughts Eileen!
