ALL THE POEMS THEY'VE YET TO WRITE

 

He finds himself smiling a lot these days 

like when another day is over…as the sunlight begins to fade…

and he thinks about the day…and all the memories they’ve made.

 

Or when they take a morning walk along the shore…

and he thinks of all the memories in life they’ve made before.

 

But as wonderful as old memories are…now…in moments he’s awake

what makes him smile even more…are the memories they’ve yet to make.

 

Those moments that await them just around the bend…

the pages of their book…the chapters…waiting to be penned. 

 

Yes, in a life that’s filled with poetry…

what brings a smile to his face at night…

before sleep closes his eyes…

are the poems they’ve yet to write.
