MEMORIES

Times have changed, people too.

The tender warmth of childhood never knew

That hearts could break

And blood would freeze,

That in the heavy crowd

I’d feel so very lonely!

Looking back, I realise

The foolishness of being

The profundity of my soul

Shattering off, into mere

Pieces, pieces and more pieces!

Thoughts of the Greek Necessity

Visiting me more often now,

Yet I cling on, only for

Those luminous remnants

In the blinding darkness of my heart!

Yes, there lies deeper still

Corners which haven’t turned grey,

Memories of the good old times

When life had been so gay!

When the world

Talks of Nostalgia

It is your face

That rushes to my thoughts,

Those lovely times,

The beautiful Sunshine of my life,

Forever fresh, forever fragrant

The Eternal Bliss too shortlived!
