Look Around

and view personal

gems which

adorn our apt walls-

pictures and cards

plus two crow feathers 

on a trail we hiked.

 

Oh the memories:

one son & castle on

a beach -- other

sons building

a shed in the back yard.  

 

Daughter -- husband

remember the wedding?

I walked you proudly

down the aisle.

Now staring back

at me proves it

was a great occasion.

 

Our own Hall of Fame

greets us daily-

friends and family divas

in picture paths

from room to room–

smiling faces mounted

over  many years.

How did we age so soon?

I like the idea of memories being held in pictures that are on the walls. Yes I agree with those last two lines and wonder where the years go and how we age so quickly.

Nice piece Richard.

Hello Jenny, and a Happy New Year. Thank You for your kind comments. You too have a nostalgic feel in your writing with a freshness of morning's Haloooo! to everyone out there.Keep the muse dancing in the twilight of beginning and end.

Happy New Year , Nolan. They are a reminder of some very exciting moments and as I remember, it is like an action video very helpful for my memory.

The pictures show the riches of your life. I like the idea of a path of photos, too, linking time with space
