A LIFETIME OF MEMORIES

Oh! my
friend
I remember
our times
together.

 

Moments
spent
as children
romping on
the beach

 

Gathering
shells for
our
collections

 

Talking
laughing
whispering
our little
secrets

 

Inside a
heart
our
initials
were
carved

 

Left
behind
to be
washed
away by
the tide

 

In late
years
walking
in the
quite
of the
evenng

 

Holding
hands
stopping
by
the lake

 

Watching
mother duck
gently
guiding her
babies across
the water.

 

Sharing our
most intimate
thoughts.

laying our
souls bare
to each other

 

The days of
our lives
slipped away
so quickly.

 

Moments so
precious
creating a
life-time
of memories.
