PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

ah, sweet moments,

those often miniscule vignettes of time,

snapshots of landscapes, 
life quilled upon passing seasons,
gifts and treasures collected
tucked into memories' dusty corners, 
filling the soul's bookshelf...

but sometimes there comes a moment
unnoticed

slipping quietly into its own silence... 

it will have no tomorrows,
no memory to ease the emptiness of regret

or words to paint upon a bare canvas,

no poetry to still the heart

and no whisper to drift upon the wind... 
instead there is only the lingering silence
and a moment that will never
breathe again... 

it might have been a song, perhaps
a dream

or a poem never written...

it might have been
simply a memory...
