Memories

Time slips slowly by,
no way to stop it,
if I even wanted to.

Memories fade,
moments left in time.

 

A little Cinderella,

bouncing on her bed,

ready for a pillow fight.

 

A rough tough tom-boy,

head to toe in mud,

ready for a swim in the lake.

 

Time slips slowly by,
no way to stop it,
if I even wanted to.

Memories fade,
moments left in time.

 

A high school student,

never sitting still,

always on the go.

 

A Radio Broadcasting graduate,

ready to take on the world,

scared as can be.

 

Time slips slowly by,
no way to stop it,
if I even wanted to.

Memories fade,
moments left in time.

 

A young bride,

dressed in white,

with a bright smile on my face.

 

Memories of a young woman,

So many roads traveled,

many more left to be traveled.

 

Author notes

Just a brief look back at the good memories in my past.

    Take A Humble Bow:

    Brilliant. I love this. This poem is so inspiring. IT's exactly how I feel. THis poem touched my heart. You grabbed the audiences' attention, and never let it go. You should publish your work, and definetly continue to grab the attention of your audience. I loved how you expressed how a high school grad is afraid of the world. I felt that way, and I think many do. Thanks for sharing and for creating this lovely poem that I know will inspire many. Bravo!

    Love,
    Evemauy

    "Memories of a young woman,

    and so life shall carry on
    and things shall move on
    head straight up and arms at stand
    hmm... (as you can see this made me think)

    great write

    and never apologize for the the length of your writing or anything that your writing has... its meant to be written how it was written!
