Forgotten

The years have flown Time has grown Here we are together Gathering memories We dare not forget Of yesteryear, yet Trapped by fears Feeling the end is near! The branches on the trees Have grown older too But still stand free One thing has changed Too much and that's Family, we wonder why! Each of us are in One's own little world Seldom seen or heard We hold on to one Another, as best friends Do yet, lonely for the Parties and celebrations! We all once shared Seasons change as We did, all that's left Is time to reminisce. Of joyful moments That once did exist And it even makes For melancholy mist! Tears of what used To be, seemingly Like yesterday when, Life was younger Still trying to grasp The thrill that's gone. Romeo Della Valle © Copyright-2021 Delray Beach, Florida (*) Google Image
