WONDERFUL DAYS

The afternoon Sun had moved on

Showing off his vivid colors proud

Magentas and oranges and also blues

Purples and yellows and pinkish hues

All infused in a carpeting green.



Such fleeting pleasures there I took

Where passing shadows gathered all

Around me

Without neither another sound.



Wonderful days when you and I

Thought we owned all those skies and

Sunshine

But confused and swept with all the

Furious winds and late life's struggles

With  fragil little wings we took that

Fatal and early flight.



A lesson of life for me from

Unforgiven time

Found also in the sounds of thoughts

And damaged love and beauty

Underneath the fallen bloosoms of

Wonderful yellow and red roses

Now gone from us forever

I still have the perfume of those

Wonderful days with you

Always flying then in just a

Dream.

Dorian, I am in awe. God's little miracles, compiled in one package, given to us free. The choice on how to perceive them is individual. I perceive this canvas the way you penned it. With all the glory nature has to offer. Thank you. Thank you for visiting me. Peace and love to you. Linda
