Are life’s special memories
So many forgotten daily treasures
Is like someone who won’t read a book
The cover is opened and closed without thought
As you see every blue sky
And cloudless day,
Warm rain, on a sunny summer day
You walk by as you self-consciously stray
And so many joyful memories are forgotten
Just like that they go rotten
And as the hours go by
And life goes on
So many wonders to see
And you just run by carefree
As you listen to life’s chime
You stand aside waiting for your time
But your time is when you realize
Just what you forgot
And how you walked into a big old knot
And that as you stand aside
Your future flies by
Like it will not see you
And then you hate how it took so long for you to see
That life’s joy was every rotten memory

Simple gifts of joy
Are life’s special memories
So many forgotten daily treasures
Is like someone who won’t read a book
The cover is opened and closed without thought
As you see every blue sky
And cloudless day,
Warm rain, on a sunny summer day
You walk by as you self-consciously stray
And so many joyful memories are forgotten
Just like that they go rotten
And as the hours go by
And life goes on
So many wonders to see
And you just run by carefree
As you listen to life’s chime
You stand aside waiting for your time
But your time is when you realize
Just what you forgot
And how you walked into a big old knot
And that as you stand aside
Your future flies by
Like it will not see you
And then you hate how it took so long for you to see
That life’s joy was every rotten memory

Interesting way of looking at life and what we remember as we go through life and therefore ultimately what life will be for us.If we hang on to the negative then it will all add up to a rotten memory,reminding us to cherish and remember the daily special moments
well written and challenging

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
