longing for nostalgia

~{}~

Remember those days of nostalgia

How we loved flea market treasures

And bread from old bakery’s

What a great time we had

With  rented movies in black and white

Listening to cd’s of old Vera Lynn recordings

And I wore that grandmother’s dress

But the nostalgia is gone

altogether now

Only the memory stays

I relate to this poem a lot. I feel like being brought back to those moments is enough for people to fall a small amount back in love. Who knows, it might just be me but I enjoyed reading this poem regardless.

Wonderful write.

That one really sent me back .... I could really relate to your longing to those early memories ... how beautiful .... I wish I could also go back to first sweet days of love ... is that the same Vera Lynn from the WALL ?
