    Remember When

    A girl sits
    on the shores
    of memory,
    and watches
    the past fly by,

     

    Caught up
    in the midst
    of a revery,
    she doesn’t notice
    the present cry,

     

     

     

    A cool breeze
    blows
    on the golden shore,
    as she knowingly opens
    a once locked door,

     

    Where past ,
    present ,
    and future
    is swept
    into the current
    where memory slept,

     

     

     

    With her eyes open wide,
    She dives right in…
    And drowns in the tide,
    Of Remember When.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
