Remembering when

Deft fingers scrape mournful chords
Somber thrums waft amidst doleful drumming
Secret tendrils of melody reach out
Unconciously, shod feet tap the synchopation
The words were almost secondary in appearance
Light yet serious, they wend their way home
Melting in rapt ears, they weave their magic image
Soon all hearts see the play unfold within them
Tragic, delicate syllables of lost love and found pain
Eyes well as the tale is built then broke down
It's heard then felt even in the deepest fiber
This was surely written about me, now the common thought
A sad taste lingers like some favorite candy long since eaten
As the mind struggles to recall and repeat the now vague tune
Memories of all that was return and die in flourish
The harmony fades and disappears in like finality
Time passes as all know it will
And every so often, the tune returns from unfamiliar memory
Bringing with it that heavy heart and sad sweet tear
We remember it well, ourselves, our love and we pause, smiling

Isn't is strange how the memories recur so fast as soon as you hear the first couple of notes. Sad or happy nostalgia. Some of the past I would love to relive and some I couldn't forget fast enough. This is an excellent write.

"Somber thrums waft amidst doleful drumming"
That line had mee interested. I see you have quite a way with words, even if you are in need of a spell-checker now and again.
Very good poem. 4 stars. |
