"Yet Another Sunrise..."

"Yet Another Sunrise..."

A Poem by Chris
"

Living with memories...

"

“Yet Another Sunrise…”

 

Life has a way of “touching”…

that takes our breath away.

Whether we consider that “touch” - be good,

bad,

even indifferent -

it’s always memorable,

even when we wish it weren’t.

"it’s always memorable,
even when we wish it weren’t."

We remember much more than we are ready for. Living in the past and trying to move in the present.

Hello, thanks for pausing with me.
Living with memories can be a double edge sword. Years after some events we can still feel the cut, the pain. Other occasions we can remember the pleasure. My Nan’s lipstick kisses still bring warmth to my cheek. I take the good with the bad, fortunately for me far more are good. How awful to live with no feeling at all. Happy Easter Chris. Pleased to stop by today on Good Friday.

The worst habit of 'memory' is its reappearance just after hitting the farthest. These memories write a poem and it starts to touch the memories of many!

Can I get more insight on it ?
Great use of the sense of touch and the metaphor is powerful. Superb work.

Oh yes, it's always memorable.. to make it memorable or just another moment is a choice and something that we strive for everyday.

Short and powerful and a good reminder too. Thanks Chris!

Most memories that I have are bad ones . . . I have spent years just forgetting all of my past life. Thankfully I still have time: some of my bitter memories have changed into happy ones, as I make new memories to cover the old. I really like this poem. Some memories are so vivid that they slap you in the face. I went sailing a half mile off Chesapeake Bay once--the wide open water, the wind in my face, a merciless sun beating down. At odd times that memories comes back to me, and it feels like a physical hit.

I remember sailing up by Anapolis... docked by the Hilton there...
And no two of life’s touches are quite the same. Loves this one short and sweet but impactful.

You're kind and appreciated...take care.
Life has a way of bringing one to their knees, touching us in a sultry way...being good or bad. Touch can bring us back to our feet, or kick us while we are down. Great read.

With love,

Matthew

Seems you've "noticed" it too... thanks for speaking.
I remember touch. It was profound.

Touch is an ever important verb….. and it has so many meanings…. Some are loving others are friendly, still others are hurtful….likely we’ve all experienced at least one or two…very creative Chris.
Warmly, B
