The Poetry of My Life

 I reached back through the years
to that precious time and place,
back through the portals of mist -
searching for that special moment
again to touch your smiling face

I heard the music of your words
and felt your gentle touch,
visions of times past still living -
as I  lingered a moment
in that place we loved so much

But all too soon as memories swirled
my time with you was over,
only ripples on a mill pond waning -
reality, and the fleeting years
has closed that precious door

Now, long as sanity prevails
and lucid thoughts are still mine,
poetry, love and beauty -
the golden moments of my life -
are defined by you and that day in time
