Feeling Nostalgic.....

 Haiku

sorting through photos
on a winter's afternoon
tears and memories


Cinquain

his cat
was a sweetheart
sleeping beauty's best friend
time flies we grow old no more cats
sadly

 

 

 His Master's Voice

Shadorma

HMV
who remembers this
an oldie
just like me
stamped on gran's vinyl LPs
a lifetime ago



eleven years already
it's still hard to believe
you are no longer with us

life  has lost its glow
miss you Ruth
thank you darling
for all those wonderful weekends
treasured memories
never to be repeated

  1. My little piglet heart empathises only too well, and were I to stay here too long, might cause a teardrop to fall, because of your nostalgic written words... ♥x

  5. So heartfelt ... the photo of friends/family gathered round the dining table made me wish for 'days past.' Oh to travel back in time, gather all of them in my arms, tell them how much I cherish them. Your post is great inspiration for sitting and simply remembering.
