Memories come

  unannounced

To soothe the senses and

Sometimes to hurt you

By reminding you of the moments gone by..

Sometimes its only the small familiar strain

Of a favourite old song

That is needed to take you

To wonderland.

Suddenly a smile comes to your lips,

And then leaves behind a tear in your eye..

You have just  remembered …..

A cherished moment

You once had with a dear friend….

Memories of a good past

May not make much of a change in

a Painful present , but does

Make things bearable…..

May your life pass on like

A pleasant memory down the lane…

Somewhere  deep in the heart and mind  there are buried

Those little shells containing

The beautiful pearls of memory

They add to the worth of life

And make it richer…..
