Come lie with me
Among the wildflowers
Fragrant with the promise
Of mornings first light

Come lie with me
As sunlight dances upon us
Under skies of blue
And faceless clouds

Come lie with me
Amidst the moonlit shadows
Gently caressing the night
A fantasy of stars
Dancing in the heavens

Come lie with me
And dream
Of yesterdays and wildflowers
Of sunlight and clouds
Of moonlight and stars
And tomorrows yet to come

We dwell too long, on dreams, of the past

Hoping mere promises, will arrive, at last

And lead us to more, wait! What have we become?

Like ravenous dogs, we anger at some

Who dare not see the day, just as we do

Who look beyond, though there are few

They, who remind us, we must always endeavor

To keep looking forward…

…into tomorrow’s forever

When things in life get you down, often make you feel forlorn

And big decisions weigh on you, and you feel old, and worn

There is nothing more remorseful, than letting life go astray

Leave the past behind you, you’re much better off that way!

Word of the Day – Forlorn

She recalls the past, so very clearly
Dates and times on which they’d occur
Memories are all she has, kept close
But this day, with me, is simply a blur

She laughs, about times, of long ago
Recalls moments, when life was hard
Until reality greets her, once again
And quickly, she puts up her guard

Refusing to let go, of all she holds dear
Oh, how she wants these moments to last
But I watch, as the days slip by, quicker now
As she stares, out the windows, of the past

Our memories are open portals to the past

Tidbits of our lives, kept in a photo book

How we long to go back to those yesterdays

Then we remember, all we need do, is look

Ragtag Daily Prompt: Past
