Poem: A Beautiful Reminder

Published 2:00 pm Monday, December 16, 2019

The year is winding down

Seasons have gone by,

everything has moved on

leaving a reminder to each one of us

nothing is everlasting.

There is not a simple moment

we lost or gained

but we have only moments

we cherished,

each one of them;

Hear my friends

I do not know why,

but my heart reaches out to you,

as the new year beckons us

for a new dawn of reckoning.

I do not want moments

to slide by us and be forgotten

and to be buried in time,

for the beautiful moments

we spent together;

Time ticks on

leaving a gentle reminder

we remained friends for

this lifetime and for evermore

with only but love always.
