Nourish Me Again

running in slow motion down the stairs

my hair bouncing in and out of my face

my nostrils filled

the heavy smell of bacon lead me

the dry, smothering aroma of warm bread

cooking eggs, a sweet berry

banter, laughter, nourishment heart and soul

before the day began

memories fill my eyes

and occupy a cheek

upon the wrinkles of the past.

Dear Respected Mad Poet Online :(

I wonder how you knew MY pseudoname FrownLaughing Many poets of yore have dwelled on nostalgia as you have in this poem.You've been on PP since 2003 ... Wow !!! No small feat !! Smile The scent of memory wafts now and then in everyones mind(in my humble view)... Ma'am keep a diary It'll keep you happier (Guarantee) 

 

Haunts of yesteryears scent the tired mind

Those happy togetherness we left behind

Yet our God has been to us ever so kind

To overwrite  bitter ones burying  unkind Smile

 

Nice knowing you Ms MPO Bye & best wishes from ~BM~
