Lost Love




The walks under sun and rain
I recall in my mem'ry again
It seems so very long ago
So many hours of fun
And your laughter that won
My heart will remain even so

The books that we read
And the things that we said
Oh how could I ever forget
The letters we wrote
And each little note
I have in my memory yet

The drives through the park
Those walks after dark
No one can take them away
The joys that we knew
The hours that flew
Only we can remember today

And now through the mist
I remember that kiss
In the cemet'ry under the stars
Those moments some how
Come back to me now
As I think on that autumn of ours

Hugs you my dear Poet. Your love pours out of this poem... it's beautiful.

Yes, she asked for a committment I couldn't give. I went into the Service and she married another. All is well.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
