Remembrance

A thought, a whisper, a dream

Takes present to the past

And suddenly it is seen

Relived again at long last.

A sound, a sight, a smell

Remembrance takes us back

To a time when all's well

When innocence doesn't last

All seems green and new.

Touch as new as old

Brings flesh to life

Hearts warm, from cold

Happiness not strife

Love is felt and seen

Memories live in dreams

Awaken, begin to mourn

Past into present goes

Knowledge is born

Tear, a river flows

Remember and live on

Past, to look upon

Remembrance......
